zenit ET huh, you want believe it but I had the same model but in black (actually still have but the shutter is gone ).
take care of her, she can sometimes deny to shoot (rewind film etc.) then don't force her, wait a few minutes and she'll be workin again
russian cams have feelings too, especially the zenit et

 

[Alexandra]

lol, I always treat her nicely! I even speak russian to her and consider that I rarely speak to a camera...
And she's the one that got me into photography! I love her, and believe it or not, she can take crisper pics than my digital camera

good god, is it a praktica (or something similar) with those big pearls? I think I'm in love

Santino, I think we are all in love with Prakticas

 

[santino]

sure, especially the B200 (you got one too, right?)

 

[darin3200]

sure, especially the B200 (you got one too, right?)

Yeah! Its my favorite camera, especially with the new 28mm prakticar

 

[darin3200]

Actually, you were the one who recommend that camera to me when I first joined TPF

 

[santino]

I can remeber, but I wasn't sure you really got it. but I'm a fool, it's even in your avatar . glad that you like it, it's my fav. SLR too. you own the EOS 1 too and prefer the B200, you're the man, there should be more people like you

Yes I did.

I like high contrast/deep shadows (either separate or together) in my photos for some reason.

 

[Alexandra]

well, it really looks awesome!
perfect for the artsy!

Yeah, my avatar is one of my favorite pictures. I just like how sturdy and small the camera is. Its just a joy to use.
Here are my artsy self portraits, complete with soap stains
