Kit Kiev 30

The production of Vega (2) stopped in 1964. From 1974 to 1983, Arsenal produced this new version. The body is identical to that of Vega II, but the exposure window has been enlarged, images are now 13x17mm (instead of 10x14) with the same lens. It is imperative to use non-perforated film. The covers are made of casted metal, thicker than the stamped metal of previous versions, the 30 is externally a little bigger than the Vega.
No additional filter is provided.
Magazines (small hole like for the Vega 2) are less well finished, do not forget to stick the covers with adhesive tape, if not they open when you remove them from the camera!
