It is unapologetically simple: a cloth focal-plane shutter, an LED exposure readout in the viewfinder, M42 screw mount, and a polycarbonate body that keeps it to 563g. What makes it worth owning is what's on the front — the \u003cstrong\u003eMC Helios 44M-4 58mm f\/2\u003c\/strong\u003e, the Zeiss Biotar descendant whose swirling background blur is the whole reason people seek out Soviet glass. This one arrives complete with its original KMZ Zenit bag, original lens cap and the original pink strap.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBody: Zenit 122 — 35mm SLR, produced from around 1990\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShutter: Cloth focal-plane, 1\/30s to 1\/500s + Bulb\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMetering: TTL semiconductor cell with LED over\/correct\/under indicators, activated on half-press\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFilm speed: ISO 16-500\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSelf-timer: Built in\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMount: M42 42mm screw\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBody: Polycarbonate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 563g body only\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLens: MC Helios 44M-4 58mm f\/2, 6 elements in 4 groups, Biotar-derived, 6 blades, 52mm filter thread, 0.5m minimum focus\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePower: 2x LR44 \/ AG13 — meter only\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCondition\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCosmetic: Excellent+ condition, with minimal signs of use.

The shutter runs 1\/30 to 1\/500, so bright daylight with fast film wants a smaller aperture or a slower stock. A complete, cased piece of late-Soviet manufacturing with genuinely desirable glass attached — and the pink strap is a nice period touch.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Zenit","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50420934770791,"sku":"L-0391","price":8500.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0633\/0793\/9943\/files\/IMG_5777.jpg?v=1791717704","url":"https:\/\/v2.filmcam.in\/products\/zenit-122-mc-helios-44m-4-l0391","provider":"filmcameras.In","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
