my recent Kiev 88 set

So this is where I am now after some misfortune with second hand bodies: - Kiev 88 M, my freshly checked and modified "master model" from Hartblei. You could also say that the M stands for "mirror lock-up", which is one of the modifications. However I'm not going to tag my Kiev shots different from now on, but stick at kiev 88. - Volna-3 2.8/80 - Calejnar-3B 2.8/150 - Arsat 3.5/30 (fisheye) - two 6x6 magazines - As is it recommended to use bodies and magazines of the same period, I ordered these from Hartblei, too. - two extension tubes, also new, 19mm and 48mm, nice possibilities... - waist level finder - TTL prisma - I'm mostly not the light metering and heavy lifting guy, so I don't have it on the cam very often. But for shots which require a tripod anyway it surely is a useful option. - strap not in the picture: - bags and filters for lenses - a whole bunch of broken oder no longer needed bodies, magazines, lenses and other stuff, waiting to be resold ;) Hopefully this state of Kiev gear will finally be of long continuance. At least for the warranty year of the new stuff it should be more shooting with than worrying about the Ukrainian monster from now on! ;)
