Zenit-EM manual
This page is no longer actively maintained.
This page contains a literal transcript of a 1970's
(In so far as it's possible to make a literary HTML conversion of a
neatly typeset document.) Unlike the manuals usually supplied
with Zenits, this one was actually printed in Russia by the manu-
facturer, KMZ. Consequently, it's uncut Soviet original: thick and fi-
brous paper, rusty steel staples. Even the English is strange.

PURPOSE

ZENIT-EM is a 35 mm reflex camera fitted with an instant return
mirror. It is designed for making various amateur and special kinds
of shooting on black-and-white or color films.
The camera has a built-in exposure meter using a photocell, a
self-timer, a shutter setting lever, a synchronising device for flash
bulbs and electronic flash. The camera accepts interchangeable
lenses with M42×1 thread and mechanical back focal distance of
45.5 mm.
With the help of extension tubes
for reproduction works. It allows to take pictures of small-size ob-
jects with large magnification and at short distances (macrophotog-
raphy) as well as to take pictures with the help of a microscope
(microphotography).

ADVANTAGES

ZENIT-EM camera has a number of certain advantages over the pre-
manual
vious models:
the camera and HELIOS-44M lens are provided with a mechanism
of automatic pre-set diaphragm. The shutter release button
being pressed, the diaphragm automatically closes to the
pre-set value;
Fresnel lens and diaphragm, fully open at the moment of view-
ing, ensure uniform image brightness of the object to be pho-
tographed in the viewfinder; micropyramids in the centre provide
for perfect image sharpness;
exposed film is rewound with the shutter disengaging bush
being fixed;
a new kind of a take-up spool simplifies the process of film
loading;
the back door lock latches automatically;
the carrying strap, attached to the camera eyes, makes the cam-
era possible to carry without its case.
