Soviet mechanical SLR (s/n 72020649). Lens confirmed present: Helios-44-2 58mm f/2 (s/n 7204863), the cult lens with ‘swirly bokeh’ that’s collectable in its own right and adapts to mirrorless/DSLRs.
Private reference notes
Usable today. Yes, fully (no meter, so use Sunny-16 or a phone app). The Helios also adapts to modern mirrorless.
Indicative value (private). £35 to £90
Condition. Body common; the Helios is the value. Lens optics & aperture ring smoothness matter most.
