KMZ JUPITER-37 135mm f3.5. ABOUT ITEM'S ORIGIN You can SKIP it! Mm cameras KONVAS were one of the most perfect cameras for the professional filming on the 35-mm color or black-and-white film in the USSR. Its low price, rugged construction and different optics have made it very popular for a lot of filmmakers since present time because KONVAS cameras has very nice quality/price ratio. 35mm KONVAS come in several flavors and have different model numbers.

The original KONVAS cameras were made in the 1950's and production lasted through the early 1990's. They were used in the Soviet's race for space, as news cameras, in feature films, in documentaries, and were even used to capture aerial footage of Chernobyl. Named after its designer, Vas ily Kon stantinov, the 35mm MOS Konvas can be a great addition to anyone's arsenal of rugged camera equipment. The design of the KONVAS was similar in appearance to the Eclair Cameflex CM3. The KONVAS has several model numbers and went through several different design upgrades (but these changes did not always lead to a change in the model number).

The original models came with a rheostat motor and a 3 lens turret system, but the designs slowly changed over the next two decades. Some of the different design changes were a result of there being two different camera manufacturers in the camera's initial production years. Some of the changes included the conversion of the difficult to load top-latch magazines to the more simple side-latch magazines, changes in body style and functionality, different motors, and different viewfinders.

Originally painted gray, it also came in black, with black eventually becoming the only color option. All models use a spinning mirror/shutter design, with a shutter opening of 150 degrees. In the early 70's, the Soviets redesigned the camera and created the KONVAS KCP-1M which still had the three lens turret system, but better motor designs.

The motors that replaced the rheostat were the 15EPSS electronic motor and the 17EP crystal sync motor. The 1M mount is designated as OCT-18 and is similar to the Mitchell BNCR mount. It looks that the camera was very accurately used before, it still very nice, without significant signs of using. I powered it with 12V battery for short time and the motor-drive rotated with correct speeds.

If you will not like those speeds you can adjust it. Lenses which comes with the camera are clear, all works properly.

You can find some pieces of dust inside and some cleaning marks at optics, but it is usual feature for a lot of Soviet lenses. Just examine item's photos please to check cosmetical condition.

It looks like good working horse, which can work long years. Format: normal ("academy" frame also can be installed). Registration error: less than 0.02mm. Operating range, temperature: -30 to +40 celsius.

It is a special bayonet OST-18 (or OCT-18). NOTE: The "OST18" (commonly referred to as OCT18) lens mount does not have bayonet lugs on it. It was only for the silver Konvas (Automat) and Konvas 1M and 7M series cameras. Flange to focal distance: 57mm. Turret front to focal distance: 51mm.

Ground glass markings: academy + cross hairs. Mounting: standard 3/8-16 tripod mount. Film speeds (electronically stabilized according with the link from tacho-sensor): 8,16, 24, 25 & 32 fps. Maximum exposure error at 8, 16, 24, 32 fps: +/-4%.
Maximum exposure error at 24 fps: +/-2.5%. Power source voltage: 7.2-8.5 volt DC. Power source: very special SCS-15x5 battery, silver-zinc type, about 375 grams of pure silver & AgO is inside 5 cells!

I hope, it can be changed to Pb or Li battery with similar voltage, because old SCS-15 batteries are dead now. Startup time, average: 0.5 seconds.

Working time: 6 minutes job + 3 minutes pause at low speed, 1 minute job + 5 minutes pause for high speed (up to 2 cycles, then 30 minutes of rest). In other case the motor can be damaged by heat. Special 3m length cable can have remote switc h, it starts the motor like the button on the motor. Power box have step-up DC-DC driver (about 50V output to the motor) and film speed selector. Each film speed is adjustable with tiny screw driver, resistors for it are visible when the battery compartment is opened. The motor drive is just dead piece of metal without this power box. Manual-drive systems are also available when you don't have the motor or battery for it. Size (for example): lens, motor, magazine - 295 x 280 x 245 mm. The camera and most of lenses were made in Ekran (former Moskinap) plant at Moscow city in 1980.
