Lovely! I've looked into getting a fisheye, I just can't afford one yet!

Is a Kiev a Russian-made camera? How old is your?

Thanks for sharing! Thanks a lot for bragging!

i picked one up cheap on ebay. the lens broke and I had to get a replacement so I went and I bought a zenit 16mm lens from the lomographic society. the camera was built in kiev arsenal factory in the city of kiev in the ukraine. the lens was made in russia. they come in a variety of mounts to fit many types of camera bodies. the one i have is for nikon which the kiev 19m is a copy of. So I can also use this on my nikon bodies. It costs around 200 bucks which is a steal considering what a nikon lens of that type would go for.
