The Zenit Photosniper, also known as "Fotosnaiper" (its official Russian name), is a unique and somewhat iconic piece of Soviet-era photographic equipment. It's essentially a camera kit designed for telephoto photography, notable for its distinctive rifle-like appearance.The Photosniper's origins trace back to military applications in the 1940s, where it was designed for observation and surveillance, allowing for steady images of distant or moving objects. During the 1970s and 80s, it was also sold to civilian photographers, though often at a high cost. It was primarily intended for photojournalism and sports event coverage. Made in USSR (Russia). Comes in its original metal branded carry case.
