MIR Type 3 35mm Rangefinder Soviet Cold War Era Film Camera

MIR Type 3 35mm Rangefinder Soviet Cold War Era Film Camera, Used.

The Mir is a 35mm rangefinder camera, manufactured by the KMZ plant in Krasnogorsk, Moscow, USSR between 1959-61. Mir, can mean 'peace' or 'world'.

The Mir is a slightly simplified version of the well known Soviet Leica-inspired camera, the Zorki 4, without the slow shutter-speed mechanism (it also lacks the fastest speed of 1/1000 second). Whereas the Zorki 4 was released for export from behind the iron curtain, the Mir was intended for domestic consumption only.

• Does not come with original manual or box.
