Important Information About Our Krasnogorsk Cameras:

This listing represents all Krasnogorsk cameras we sell. Please note the following:

• Most of our cameras are pre-owned but have been thoroughly tested for functionality and have no significant physical defects.
• We primarily sell unmodified cameras in their original configuration with minimal cosmetic imperfections.
• The camera you receive may slightly differ from the photos in the listing. For example, the leather case may be different or show more wear.
• While we carefully inspect the lenses and film mechanisms, the camera body may have some scuffs or scratches, which are not considered defects given the vintage nature of these items.
• For cameras with different lens mounts, removed loop formers, or Super16/Ultra16 modifications, separate listings will be created on our website.

Whether you're a collector of vintage film gear or a filmmaker looking to explore the unique aesthetics of 16mm, the Krasnogorsk-3 offers an authentic analog experience with its mechanical precision and classic design.

The Krasnogorsk-3 is also a popular starting point for Super 16 conversions — filmmakers value its sturdy spring-wound body and removable M42 lens mount as an affordable route into Super 16 shooting.
