GOMZ-LOMO PLANT, 1950-1960s SMENA RANGEFINDER FOR SOVIET SMENA 35mm CAMERAS ...and may be for other cameras too ABOUT ITEM'S ORIGIN (You can SKIP it!) Smena cameras were very popular in the Soviet Union, most of people were glad to see contrast and sharp images. Smena camera is much smaller than for example Zorki or Zenit and was very inexpensive in Soviet terms, about 1/10-1/20 of usual Soviet monthly wage. ITEM'S CONDITION: WELL-USABLE The device was made in 1950-1960s years, looks used and stored some time at humid environment, some oxides and rust are visible... just examine item's photos please. I disassembled the device to remove dust and adjusted distance metering. All functions available, metering looks correct, I tested it both for 1m and for infinity distance. TECHNICAL FEATURES * Brand: GOMZ (later on became LOMO) * Model: Smena. * Compact and light. * Distances on the scale are: 1, 1.3, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 5, 10, and "infinity". * The device is easy adjustable, You can correct a distance metering with tiny screw-driver, correction screw is hidden under big decorative screw at right side from the eyepiece.
