ZENIT SLR CAMERAS :: WHAT YOU SEE IS WHAT YOU GET
A.K.A. ZENIT RUMBLE PART 2 – THE SEQUEL!
On a technical level, Single Lens Reflex cameras use a movable mirror placed between the lens and the film plane to project the image seen through the lens into your viewfinder. Once you peer into the camera, then quite literally – what you see is what you get. But dig a bit deeper, and you’ll see that it’s much more than that. It’s truly a one-on-one interaction between you and your machine – in which focusing, composing, and shooting are intimate and highly rewarding activities. With an SLR, your eye becomes one with the lens – and the camera becomes a true extension of your body.
We are thrilled to present a selection of the finest Russian SLR’s (and hands-down the greatest Fisheye Lens) on the market today. Made with pride by our Zenit partners, they are typically Russian – as in sturdy, robust, handsome, friendly, not quite “state of the art,” and totally irresistible. You’ll find yourself quickly infatuated with their off-kilter looks, old-school controls, and beautiful, quirky optics. And they come from a classic pedigree: the first 35mm SLR camera was actually created in Russia back in 1935! Although they might appear a bit plasticky, have no fear – beneath that high-impact plastic skin lies an all-business steel skeleton and a glass lens that yields world-class tack-sharp images with the special kind of over-vibrant colors that only Russian optics can yield.

FISHEYE LENS :: ZENITAR 16/2.8
Make sure that you’re prepared for this one – it’s kind of a big deal. We’re talking no less than 180 full degrees of diagonal vision in one of the finest fisheye lenses ever created. Horizons are bent, straight lens are curved, and noses are sucked right into your camera. Premium multicoated optics and a fast 2.8 aperture make the results even more slamming. And the best news: it’s available in three different mounts to please all manners of SLR shooters.

ZENIT BUNDLES
In case you haven’t heard, the highly congenial family of Zenit products takes their close relations extremely seriously. There’s nothing they like better than a good old-fashioned get-together around the barbeque bit. In recognition of this, we’ve assembled a few little packages of exceptionally well-paired family members.

HORIZON REFLEX
A match made in heaven – the creamy dreamy Horizon Kompakt and the all-business Zenit 122K SLR.
HORIZON SNIPER
First, use the Horizon Kompakt’s 120-degree swing-lens to survey the scene. Next, analyze the details from afar with the up-close-and-too-personal Fotosniper. Roger that.
FISHSNIPER
Just because the Fotosniper is one seriously bad dude doesn’t mean that he really doesn’t know how to party. Fit the Zenitar Fisheye lens on him and see for yourself. An instant party awaits!
