My first reflex camera in 1997. All my photography colleagues used Nikon FM2, Pentax MX, etc... and the only thing I could get was a Zenit 122 m42. The double exposures that my classmates did so easily on my Zeint did not work... no method... not even the 3 fingers. But one day I discovered how to make them and won that year's annual contest with a double exposure portrait. A very basic camera, it made me curse many times, the ISO is turned accidentally, it doesn't have low speeds, I ran out of a photometer 3 months after buying it... anyway... The only good thing was the lens and the shutter lock. T with which he let me make lucigrams in B. Later I accessed better cameras like Canon A1, FM2, FM, MX... some I still have... but to learn by cursing, the best photos were with the Zenit. If you master a Zenit, you master everything.
Yes, this was also my first reflex camera. I'm glad you liked it. Are you subscribing to the channel? I'll be posting more videos in the future with this camera...
These look like my childhood photos. 🥹
Thank you so much!
