I will try to characterize all known mass Smena models, providing technical references as well as details interesting for camera collectors. I will try to present all the versions of Smena camera (including ultra rare prototypes) in my list.

Soviets for almost two decades produced heavy-duty Fed cameras, for the last five years tryed to reclaim high Zeiss Ikon Contax technologies and made first step in Zenit SLR camera releasing.
