The Kiev-19 is a 35mm SLR produced by the Arsenal Factory, one of the oldest and most famous industrial factories in the former Soviet Union as well as modern day Ukraine. After developing their own lens system and producing several SLR models like the Kiev-10 Automat, Arsenal decided to drop it in favour of the Nikon F-mount when they produced the Kiev-17, the direct predecessor of the 19. As far as manual SLRs go, the Kiev-19 is pretty typical both in design and function. The front of the camera is dominated by the Soviet-made lens (although you could use any F-mount lens). A depth of field preview switch is located at nine o’clock on the mount while the lens release button is located at four. Just above the lens release button is a small shutter speed knob with speeds ranging from 1/2-500 seconds and Bulb. Directly above the shutter speed selector on the top plate is the film rewind knob surrounded by a film speed indicator which can be manually adjusted by depressing the adjacent tiny silver button. On the side of the pentaprism is a flash sync socket and a hot shoe on the very top. On the other side of the viewfinder is a threaded shutter button, a frame counter, and the film advance lever. On the bottom is a film rewind release button, a standard tripod socket, and the battery compartment for the 19’s cadmium sulfide light metre.
