In 2015, during my first trip to Russia, I bought a weird Smena camera, and I never fully understood how I could take pictures with it. Fast-forward to the pandemic, and when I got excited about analog photography, I tried to use it again with some really interesting results. Last year, I lost the camera, so I went online to look for a replacement as soon as possible. This is how I got the camera that took the pictures here. It's a Smena M made in the 1960s in Belarus; the M stands for Minsk. I took these pictures in January 2024 with the Smena M and a roll of AGFA 400 to test things out.
