INTRODUCTION
KIEV Cameras have been produced since 1947 by the ARSENAL plant
(located in Kiev, Ukraine). They are exact copies of the prewar Ziess
"Contax" cameras. High reliability, ability to shoot in extremely low
temperatures (they can work even in severe Russian winters!), and
interchangeable lenses, are the characteristics which made these cameras
the choice for professional photography for more than 40 years.
1. SPECIFICATIONS
Type of Camera
Mechanical range finder camera. Designed for amateur photography, but can be used for scientific and technical
photography as well.
Picture Format
24 x 36 mm. The camera accepts standard 35mm film. Loading the camera with a 1.6 meter length of film will yield
36 exposures.
Shutter
The Kiev camera has an originally designed metal focal plane shutter with vertical traverse.
Shutter Speeds
Automatically timed shutter speeds 1/2, 1/5, 1/10, 1/25, 1/50, 1/125, 1/250,1/500, and 1/1000 (or 1/1250 in earlier
models), plus "B" for manually-timed long exposures.
Lens
"Jupiter-8" (or "Jupiter-8M"). High quality anastigmat with high resolution. The lenses are finished with an anti-
reflection coating. Focal length = 50mm with maximum opening of 1:2. Supplied as the standard lens for the camera.
Lens Mount
Bayonet mount, similar to Contax range finder bayonet mount.
Viewfinder
Built-in optical viewfinder gives the field for the standard 50mm lens. Magnification, 0.8X lifesize.
When using other lenses of different focal lengths, the use of an auxiliary finder (i.e. Universal viewfinder") is
necessary.
Focusing
The camera is equipped with a long base optical rangefinder, working from 0.9 m to infinity. The long base range
finder high focusing accuracy, essential with large aperture or long focal length lenses. Focusing is also possible with
the use of the distance scale.4.butkus.org
Self-timer
Mechanically controlled, 9-15 second exposure delay.
Exposure Metering
Built-in selenium cell exposure meter (for Kiev-4 only). Reading angle is 65 to 70 degrees. Acceptable brightness
range is 4 to 16000 cd/m2.
Kiev-4a do not have a built-in exposure meter. Film-speed indication only.
Filters
Threaded, 40.5 x 0.7 mm.
Tripod
3/8" threaded socket (modern 1/4" nut on later models)
Flash Synchronization
1/25 or slower with electronic or bulb flash.
2. NOMENCLATURE
The basic components of the camera (fig. 3) are: shutter, lens, rangefinder, viewfinder, self-timer mechanism mounted
on the body, and removable back cover.
Shutter cocking is by turning the winding knob (5). The shutter speed scale (4) is engraved on the winding knob. The
scale has numbers 2, 5, 10, .... up to 1000 (or 1250), which stands for 1/2, 1/5, 1/10, .... 1/1000 (1/1250) sec.,
respectively.
The shutter mechanism is linked to the film transport and frame counter mechanisms. By turning the winding knob
(5), the shutter is simultaneously cocked, with the frame advance and the of the disc counter moves up by one
division. With this design, double exposures are prevented.
The shutter is released by the release button (6) or by activating the self timer release (1).
The shutter release button has a threaded hole to accommodate a shutter release cable.
Focusing of coinciding the second image from right window (2) and left window (11) into one, which is made
possible by an optical compensator in the rangefinder mechanism.4.butkus.org
The rangefinder mechanism is connected to the lens focusing mechanism, and thus, when the rangefinder images
coincide, the lens is focused correctly. The compensator turns by rotating the gear wheel (9).
A distance scale is engraved on the lens focusing mount, graded from 0.9 to infinity (fig. 4). All numbers represent
distances in meters.
