| Zenit B with Helios lens (and polarising filter) |
The Zenit B (sometimes marked in cyrillic: ЗЕНИТ-B) was a purely mechanical Russian 35mm SLR similar to the Zenit E but without the light meter. Just like the E, it had no automatic diaphragm; the lens had to be stopped down manually after focusing. There were also no focusing aids apart from the plain ground-glass screen. It had a focal plane shutter with speeds 1/30 - 1/500 + B. The B was one of a long series of Zenit cameras.
