Welcome to my little photo shop!Almost all my things are Soviet photographic equipment and optics and, as a rule, things that have
received my service and are suitable for use as intended.
However, this is a specific technique.
The Soviet industry and photographic equipment, in particular, did not differ in reliability.
Almost all cameras had problems already during the warranty period.
Some models simply did not work, they were constantly being repaired and
eventually the user returned them.
By the way, this procedure in the Soviet Union was very difficult.
I can name a few such models - Almaz-103, Kiev-17-20, Zenit-4-5-6-7-19, Elikon-AF...
It may be hard to believe if not living in the USSR at that time, but this is a fact!
That is, on average, 5-7 percent of the equipment needed service during the warranty period, then maintenance was also required.
Of course, we are talking about used cameras.
Cameras that were not used and stored in factory condition, preserved in their original form.
Such things can still be purchased, although rarely. However, they are guaranteed not to work correctly.
I can draw an analogy with the car,
which stood 20 years in the garage and then began to be used. How much, do you think, he will drive after leaving?
Thus, I sell the photo equipment after the repair and directly indicate - whether it is suitable or not suitable for use.
I do not use evasive language and thus take responsibility.
However, the buyer must also understand the reality.
This is not a new thing, even a state - this thing is simply not used,
however, it was released many years ago and should be brought to working condition.
I have experience, knowledge and spare parts, but even in this case, I cannot work perfectly.
Mistakes happen, unforeseen problems also, damage in transit ...
In each case, the response is necessary - the buyer paid the money and also understand my situation.
If there is a problem, then contact me directly, I will always help.
As you can see from my fedbaks, I try to do it effectively.
Soviet cameras and lenses are interesting things, a lot of my customers use them for shooting, not only for the collection.
I try to give a second life to these things.
Help me on this.
About the condition.
I use the following scale state of things:
New - Like new - Mint(+,-) - Excellent(+, - ) - Good working - As is.
A separate listing of technical condition. As a rule, I sell things in working order.
Description.Up for the auction LC-A with Minitar-1 2,8/32 mm lens.
35-mm film camera, 24x36 mm frame format.
LOMO factory, Soviet Union.
"Excellent" general condition. No cracks, impacts or improper storage.
Normal traces of use.
Lens glass condition - few little marks on the front glass, which will not affect the picture quality.
Cosmetical condition - please, see detailed photos.
Technically, the camera is fully functional.
It had the necessary service - cleaning the shutter blades from
traces of grease, replacing the old seal around the perimeter of the back cover.
An interesting device from the point of view of Soviet electronics.
In fact, there are two reasons for operational failures - a malfunction of the microcircuit and sticking
of the shutter-aperture blades due to traces of oil.
Otherwise, this is a very reliable camera with an electronic shutter.
Practically, this is the only Soviet camera of its kind.
The outwardly similar Kiev-35A is a completely different design and absolutely unsuitable for photography.
During the years of its production, I worked in a warranty service and such cameras were not repaired, they
were sent to the factory and the money was returned to the buyer.
Then the manufacturer canceled the warranty and began selling them at half the price.
Please, see detailed photos and ask questions before bidding.
