  • New toy !
    Praktica MTL5, made in East Germany during the Cold War.
    I had it with several high-range (I think?) lenses

    • a 50mm Carl Zeiss Jena 1.8 Pentacon lens
    • a Vivitar Carl Zeiss (m42 too) 35-85mm 2.8


    Now I'm waiting for all the Fujicolor that I bought on Amazon for few bucks :)

  • I bought half a dozen with 35-85 lenses for TVEI photography in the 90s - almost bomb proof and certainly resistant to the casual carelessness of teenagers.

  • Yes,
    Indeed it's one of my pros choosing this camera and lenses. It's pretty cheap on eBay, and evenmore it seems to be a really good "school" camera as I'm only learning photography at 18y-o.
