I received one those almighty FED 2's with a collaspible Industar 50

last week. I decided to take it for a walk about during my lunch

break. Unfortunately, it was dreary and sometime rainy December day.<div>00ANMY-20819084.jpg.fe65453a36a85acda027312dddce5bc6.jpg</div>

Well that's pretty cool Andrew. I bought a red Zorki C in Germany last week. McKeown's doesn't list red as a choice for the Zorki C. Could it be possible that my Zorki is extremely rare and worth a fortune ? Nah....

It also has a collapsible lens and looks a lot like the FED 2. I paid about $12 for it. Your shots look great. I'll load up my Zorki with some color film for a change and post the results here one day.

 

Be careful, I've heard that buying old Russian viewfinders can be addictive.

Cupog is a terrific seller. If you want something in line with what he usually sells, ask him for a price for one. And if you have a problem, he will fix it. I still prefer the early Kievs though. Regards, Ross

Gene, this one is a keep even though it cost a whopping $24.99, plus $15.00 for shipping. It's an easy to carry, low cost 35mm rangefinder, that may or may not see some color film in the near future.

 

Also, the bug has already struck. I'm awaiting the arrival of a Zorki 3M.

 

One last photo, to show what Monday's weather was like. The building in the background is across the street, one block away to the right.<div>00ANmv-20829084.jpg.21bf9bc0e925448b1018b9215018c6dc.jpg</div>

Welcome comrade Andrew :-)

 

There is a whole line of Feds to get, then the complete line of Zorki, Kiev, then the MF RFs, then the larger format ones. And that's not including the lenses... Should keep you occupied for a little while.
