Kiev 60

From Camerapedia.org

The Kiev 60 is a medium format SLR camera built in the Arsenal factory in the Ukraine during the Soviet era. The design was based on the Pentacon Six, and the form factor is similar to some medium format Pentax SLRs. It is fully manual, has TTL metering, and uses 120 film. It uses Arsat lenses with the Pentacon Six mount.

The Kiev 60 used a cloth focal plane shutter. Shutter speeds from 1/1000 to 1/2 sec were available, as well as a bulb (B) setting. Some variations offered mirror lockup.
