ZENIT 12S

Zenit 12S, from the "Photosniper" FS12 bought for 60€ in a second hand fair July 2nd, 2013.

Almost new in it's suitcase with the Tair 3S, Helios 44M-4 and accessories. Galvanometer down and silvering of the pentaprism destroyed because of an old mercury battery forgotten in the case (replaced since!). The rubber of the eyepiece is missing.

Like the Zenit ES, this camera has a special baseplate, with an appendix that plugs into the Photosniper butt, allowing to release the shutter through the trigger of the "photographic rifle" and a protruding eyesight, is added a socket for connecting an electrical cable from the lens, for measuring the light at full aperture.
