proper quality and russian optics for reasonable price? my body is ready

Sorry to be a spoilsport but... what does a film body have to do with the pictures you take on it?
Doesn't the image solely depend on the lens and film combination, rather than the box they're housed in?

>>2767749
Look at the variety of film SLRs and ask yourself the same question again.

>>2767749
It's not about image quality, it's about features, feel, durability, reliability, and personal workflow.

It's the same today, really. Digital cameras all take more or less the same photo, the difference is in the lens ecosystem, the controls, the feel, etc.

>>2767805
>It's not about image quality, it's about features, feel, durability, reliability, and personal workflow.

You mean the 1/30-1/500 5 stop shutter, full metal heavy body, cloth shutter courtains that tear/get pinholes/unglue from the spools, pentaprism-securing/lighttight foam deteriorating into a sticky, pentaprism-eroding mess, dim 66% coverage fresnel (no real DOF preview) microprism/at best split prism viewfinder SLR body with a ridiculously large case and off-center tripod mount?

Yeah, I've a Zenit 12XP and a Praktica MTL5 and the only reason I'll ever stick a lens on the Зeнит is for T hours-long startrail/nighttime exposure because shoeboxes don't have M42 screwmounts.
I like to romanticise the quaint Zenit but for actual photography literally every single different SLR brand/make has more features and overall better design/viewfinder coverage.

I shit you not, please, please show me an M42 SLR manufactured at the same time period that has less features than a Zenit, I'm genuinely curious. And all this is coming from a minimalist that likes to use a Smena 8M.

Oh, so there's literally absolutely no fucking reason to post a thread specifically for pictures from X light-tight box versus Y lighttight box?

So why the fuck do you idiots do this?

>>2767856
Because some people like Zenits? Are you upset that someone made a thread that wasn't specifically targeted towards you? Just minimize it if you don't like it.

>>2767858
I don't give a shit who it's "aimed at" because it's pointless gearfaggotry of the worst order. It's literal cancer to the well being of this board as anything other than a hive of circlejerking gearfagging.

>>2767866
People talking enjoyably about the things they're interested in is the cancer, but the guy who comes in in a full on rage, trying to fight everyone? That's NOT the cancer, right? The baseless anger over someone else's differing tastes and priorities? That's what the board needs MORE of, certainly.

>>2767874
Where in there does it talk about autistic rage about someone else's opinion on camera equipment, or their discussion of said camera equipment on an anonymous free to use public image board? and attacking people? I don't see it. Is it below the "this post is too long" thing?

Minimize the thread. Post photos somewhere.

I don't own a Zenit. I don't particularly care for the thread either. The difference is, I'm not spazzing out and attacking people about it. You are not the /p/olice, and this board was not set up specifically for you. The guidelines in the Sticky were put there by one guy talking to mods like... three years ago? You can't be banned or have your posts deleted for violating it, so clearly it's just there to sort of be there. Minimize the threads you don't like, support the ones you do, post your photos, and enjoy yourself. Be a positive influence. Rage has done more damage to this board in the past four years than gear threads ever have.

I'm genuinely sorry for inciting two idiots to feed eachother replies. If either of you just stopped replying to the other this'd still be even a remotely relevant Zenit/soviet tank cam thread.

As penance I'll try to find/obtain another Zenit at tomorrow's antiques market and do whatever's suggested itt to it. Probably smash it, sadly.

>The difference is, I'm not spazzing out and attacking people about it. You are not the /p/olice, and this board was not set up specifically for you.
I'm not the one posting special snowflake camera threads. I also never claimed this board was set up for me.

Also,
>calling people out for their bullshit=spazzing out
Ignoring=tacit acceptance. In that vein, you're part of the problem for not speaking up if you "don't particularly care for the thread". Your moral superiority there is partly what's allowed this board to devolve into what it is today. Go look at >>>/ic/ and tell me how long shit threads stay up. Not long, huh? That's because their users actively maintain the standards of that board. Here, shit stays around because shit is tolerated.

>>2767894
Well it's a good thing your spaz attack fixed it. The thread is gone now, and there will never be another one. Keep it up!

>>2767894
>Special Snowflake

Oh it's you. Glad you're here to post your angry disagreement with every thread on the board and literally nothing else!

>>2767900
>I am proud of contributing to keeping this board shit!
>Nothing you can say or do will make me ever stop being shit!
>I love being shit!

>>2767904
You're implying that that's him, but that is literally exactly you. Just to throw that observation out there.

>>2767903
>implying
>>2767906
Ah yes, it's not like there's not dedicated forums to sites like circlejerking over things like rangefinders...oh, what? There's the rangefinderforums? And I'll be damned if there aren't gear threads here. This thread adds nothing and does detract from this board.

>>2766967
