The Zorki-1 is beautiful, I hate to have it in the case. Very smooth and a delight to shoot. The whole kit is very nice. thank you for a high quality product!
Trevor M. | 12:48:30 6.Dec.2005
My Kiev 2a arrived today in Ohio, paid for it on Monday, recieved it the following Monday, ironically at the exact same time I paid for it! Plus the shipping cost was much lower than from other sellers It is beautiful, I've already I shot a roll of film and it came out great, shutter works fine. Even came with an extra takeup spool! Great communication, responded to emails quickly. I asked if I could swap the Jupiter 8 it came with for a Helios 103 and he did so without any additional cost! YOU DEFINITLY HAVE A REPEAT CUSTOMER. NO MORE EBAY FOR FSU CAMERAS! THANKS!!!
Bob L ( Robert lejuez) | 07:36:10 26.Nov.2005
Received my Kiev 4 today, just 7 days after Vikentiy shipped it to me here in NYC. Everything worked like a new camera, even the outside was in super shape. If you need a FSU camera or other parts this is the place to buy it. Super man to deal with and a real gentlement who stands behind what he sells. It's nice to get a camera that doesn't required you to adjust something.
Bob L | 13:14:56 11.Nov.2005
Folks please disregard that stuipid message of mine below, the problem was with my e-mail blocking Vikentiy's replys to me. Vikentiy is in the process of correcting the problems with the camera and in fact has gone out of his way to make things right, can't ask for him to do more then he is. Would not hesitate to deal with him again and I will be doing so very soon. The man is a real gentlemen.
Bob L | 11:12:52 9.Nov.2005
Recived a Kiev4 , No take up spool, selt timer not working and flash failed after only 2 shot, send repeated e-mail about these problems and never received a reply, whay a ripped off.
Robert R. from California | 15:47:38 2.Nov.2005
V ery courteous seller. prompt email response. My Zorki 3M arrived today only 10 days after purchase and exactly as described. Very pleased. Thankyou Vikenty
Robert Lejuez | 11:18:54 2.Nov.2005
Received my Kiev 4 today, camera came in just 12 days here to the USA, Both the camera and Lens were perfect, this is the way to buy cameras from the FSU. Have purchased cameras from others and have alway had to do some repairs, not with this one every thing was right on and worked like it was brand new, will sure to buy again from you. Thanks
Brian S from Albany, CA | 02:19:01 28.Oct.2005
Vikentiy is a true gentleman. I bought a FED 2 (green body) and a Kiev 35A from him. Unfortunately, the Kiev was not working at first so I sent it back. Vikentiy did all he could to replace my Kiev with one he tested himself! Both cameras are excellent shooters and smooth like butter. The quality is very good and the responses are excellent! I highly recommend Soviet Cameras.
Mikael (france) | 05:58:15 1.Sep.2005

Over a year ago, I purchased a Kiev 2a. As a regular user of the Kiev 4am, I must say this is a wonderful camera. As smooth working as a Rolleiflex 2.8c. The cla done is outstanding. Very good place to find high quality examples of the best USSR cameras made!
