Zenit AM 2

Zenit · Russia · 1990 · 135 film

The Zenit AM 2 is a straightforward 35mm SLR camera launched by the Soviet manufacturer KMZ (Krasnogorsk Mechanical Plant) under the Zenit brand in 1990. Representing the late Soviet era, it embodies the utilitarian approach of Zenit cameras, offering manual controls and basic functionality at a very low price point. Designed primarily for entry-level photographers and budget-conscious consumers, it lacks significant innovation compared to contemporary models from Japan or the West, focusing instead on robust, simple construction and essential features for taking pictures on 135 film.
