I haven't done film for 2 years. So i decided to take out my old film cameras and shoot some film. I own like 10 vintage soviet film cameras. Some Smenas and Lomos, a Zenit E, Zenit ET, a Fed, Ljubitel and 2 exemplars of Agat 17, one of them broken.

This one was taken with Zenit E and a Helios 44-2 lens. I used ome crappy cheap noname film and i scanned the negative with Epson 10000. Thank u Anz for posing. Or, well, thanks for being Anz.
