Dunno really. I just calculated that I've taken at least three thousand pictures with my other Zenit. It hasn't ever failed and works very smoothly.
My first SLR in 1973 was a flam new Zenit and it worked flawlessly for several years until I gained a family and could not afford photography anymore. I currently have two very old Zenits and both work well. I have never understood why people need to run them down.

Zenits were manufactured either AFTER the coffee break or BEFORE the coffee break, (in dire anticipation of that coffee break). THAT, ALONE will be the sole determinant as to its longevity and functionality. Quality control in the USSR was that sporadic. - David Lyga
Yep, they are great bodies to buy with lens! Toss out the body and use the lens on an m42 to EOS adapter with a Rebel or 630.
