An example would be the Exacta 66 which was basically a rebuilt Pentacon 6. Now the Ukrainians were doing similar work on the MF Kiev's rebuilding some of them with stronger parts, removing the flaws. So I'm a lot less sceptical than you. Ian |

Apart from the appearance, why the limited shutter speeds of 1 sec to 1/500, the lack is hardly going to be a selling point. Whilst it is enough for most cases the omission of a shorter top speed and a longer slow one will put a lot o people off buying it.
The Nikon mount on the original Kiev 19 also gave problems with the lens mount which could not be rectified. Then there is the place it is going to be made. Ukraine is not exactly the most stable of counties. Will the supply of spares and information be forth coming. Sorry, scepticism is still high on my agenda |

Well, it is just a Kiev 19. Well, though the nice wooden handle could do something good, like the Hasselblad Lunar did for the equivalent by Sony for 4x the price.
