- Happy Holidays, all!
-
- I have a line on picking up a Kiev 88 setup for a pretty low price (250-300 $US
- for the body, 1 120 back, 80mm lens, filters & case), and I have read reviews
- that suggest this to be a decent camera, which can use old Zeiss lenses :-)!
-
- I'd like more info on it before I buy the thing, though - does anyone have any
- experience shooting with this machine? How reliable is it? How accurate is the
- TTL prism meter (I may be able to get one of those, too)? How good are the
- USSR/Ukraine-made lenses?
-
- Post it here, or EMail me directly at bukti@wam.umd.edu or am96@umail.umd.edu
- (I cruise lots of BBSs).
-
- Thanks in advance, Andy.
