Smena Symbol test

06 Smena 2 300x106 Smena Symbol test

Some time ago my uncle gave me his old 35mm film camera “Smena Symbol” it’s a lomo camera from the 70s. The camera is in a very good condition, in a leather coffer. The Smena Symbol is an improvement of a popular Smena 8M lomo camera, the differences between them are the shutter knob and the film rewinder, you don’t need to load the shutter separetly, it loads automatically when you rewind the film, what makes the camera much faster and more convenient in use (disadvantage is that you can’t make multiple exposures), also they removed the cord release socket, now flash is synchronized by a hot shoe contact, but when I inserted my CACTUS V2S transmitter into the flash socket it didn’t trigger. Everything else is pretty much the same as Smena 8M. Look at some test shots from FUJIFILM C200 colour film below.
