As much as i love, i don't use this camera since i have bought a Canonet. So this has to go, instead of waiting on a shelf, collecting dust.

Body is in a very good condition. Shutter speeds are working correctly (well i don't have a shutter tester, but they never give me an exposure problem). Film advancing is maybe a little stiff, but problem free. Btw i don't see another Kiev, so maybe this is normal, i don't know. No light leaks. Rangefinder Only problem is that self timer isn't working.

Jupiter-12 35 mm is in perfect condition. Glass is perfect, not even a dust or scratch. Aperture and focusing mechanisms working smoothly. There is absuletely no problem with this lens.

Jupiter-8 50 mm is the lemon of this set. While the aperture and focus rings are smooth, glass isn't in a very good condition. There are scratches on the front element and there is a litte spot on the inner glass that i belive fungus or mold. I am not sure which is which. But these problems doesn't effect image quality. Maybe in some lighting conditions you can see its effect.

There is of course strap and leather case with the camera and two 40.5 mm Cokin UV filters with lenses.

I want 100 USD + shipping for this set. I can ship it anywhere in the world.

That 50 isn't in too bad of shape, good price for the whole kit.

Kiev is as close as you will get to getting a Contax without actually buying one
 
Thanks man. I too think it isn't in a very bad shape, but I have to inform all the potential buyers
