Thanks, I got the camera from my brother in law who's a professional photographer in Moscow.
(He's a "digital native" never having used 35mm and was intrigued to know how one sets white balance on an Zenit 11)
Flipping heck haha, there doesn't seem to be hope left for us at that rate! Get him to post some negatives into his cd drive to get them onto his computer! ...hehe
Amazing that you've got that Zenit in such perfect condition. A much rougher one of those was my first ever camera. Good stuff, GLWS.
