    Description

    The most affordable professional camera in the USSR, created based on the Pentacon SIX. It was produced for a long time, the Kiev-6C model 1971-80 and the Kiev-6C model TTL 1978-86. Despite the budget, Kiev-6S could afford to buy a photo studio, enterprises (factories), as well as journalists and photographers assigned to a serious publication (for example, Pravda) - the price of 690 rubles for the beginning of the 80s was too high for “mortals”.
    This camera is relevant today, amateur photographers who want to get acquainted with the medium format are not diminishing, and from year to year there are more and more of them. As a rule, this acquaintance begins with the most affordable options, such as cameras like Kiev.

    Ergonomics and design:
    A large, heavy apparatus does not fit into the hand, I twisted it in different ways, so I didn’t get used to it in any way. One gets the impression that practically did not work on ergonomics. Undoubtedly, Kiev-6C has everything you need, but not in the usual place. A huge number of complaints related to ease of use caused the shutter button, you can press it only with your left hand and not with your right as is customary.We ship your orders via UPS with a tracking code, all orders without exception are insured by us against loss or damage (included in the shipping cost).
