I own a arax which is modification of kiev 88. No problem so far but the lens is poor. So I use carl ziess sonnar lens. The result is WOW!! You have to try it.

I am conducting a studio model shoot this coming Tuesday and Friday evening. Charges is $50 per person. Well if you feel like trying out your camera, sms me at 98796813 or email me at limch@**********.com.

Hi,

I am using both Kiev 6C & Kiev 60. No problems so far. Using CJZ MC 50 & 80mm, and Russian 30 & 250mm lenses.

Regards,

If not for my damaged spine, Kievs are sure loads of fun. Modified one slightly to take up 35mm rolls and get panoramic frames.

Developing? Not sure if there is any other way else... don't have to feel embarrased about it, MF 120 films are like 35mm ones, used by outright amatuers to all out professionals. alternatively, if you shoot on b&w films, you can try develop them yourself or pass it to someone who does self developing.

Most lab can do 120 neg. But 120 trans or slide most go to "pro" lab like Foto Hub.
