It was 2006 when i start photography. My first camera was Zenit TTL (1977), 35mm film camera from my father, used to picture my childhood in Togliatti. Next step was a present for my 27 birthday from friends – Nikomat EL (1972), the first electronic camera launched during the “all mechanical” era, a superbly practical and capable camera for photography in all its forms, from the everyday to the most sophisticated situations. I use three Nikkor MF lences: 24/f2, 50/f1.4, 80-200/f4. Third step was the middle format film camera – Moskva-5 (1959), i bought it accidentally at flea market in 2008.
My story continue in 2011, Holga 120N – Hipster’s medium format 120 film toy camera, made in China and ordered in America as a part of my first purchases abroad.
