Start Camera

Reflex camera of the high class. These cameras were produced by factory "KMZ" (Krasnogorsk) since 1958 to 1964.The Start is a reflex camerawhich I must say a very heavy piece of metal (1Kg.), also it has a good and fluid transmission lever. The objective or the lens that comes with it is a very bright Helios 44 (58mm. f-2) and it is very shiny with field of view that allows to realize perfect frames.

A characteristic of this camera is to take pictures very near to the ground without the picture-taker having tobe to bend just to see through the viewfinder. Infact it is possible to remove the pentaprism and control the frame from the top.Frame size 24X36mm, Curtain-type shutter.
