The camera uses the widely available 35mm film format and provides manual exposure controls for photographers who enjoy a hands-on shooting experience. The renowned Helios lens is particularly appreciated for its distinctive rendering and attractive background blur, making this vintage combination an appealing choice for film photographers and collectors
Function: The Zenit 122 is a manually operated 35mm SLR.
