Kiev 4A (type 2) c1974 - 1980
As you can tell from the serial number on the lens, this is a very early type 2. As you can tell from the photograph, it doesn't have its
original imitation leather covering. That's a new skin from Camerleather.com.
Selenium window open. The meter doesn't work of course.
The camera has a nice finish. It's heavy and the shutter is so quiet that sometimes I'm not sure if it fired.
The lens looks radioactive.

I grabbed the camera off the shelf last week after
a long hiatus from photography.When I went to load it I discovered that there was already a roll in it. Most
of the roll was ruined but since there was still film in the canister, I shot the remainder.
There have been many thunderstorms this year. The photo at left shows one moving into
Ware, Massachusetts on a hot August afternoon. f8 or so.
Just before the rain. f 4
Sunset. North Quabbin. f8.
Queen Ann's Lace. January 2009. A found film of sorts.
