Less common export version of Salyut camera, under name "Revue 6•6". Fitted with Industar-29 2.8/80mm lens.

The Revue 6×6 is a medium format camera. The camera was built by Arsenal in Ukraine, at that time still part of the Soviet Union. In Germany, the model was then sold by Foto-Quelle under its own private label. The Revue 6×6 is based on the Salyut.

The Revue 6x6 is the same as a Kyiv-80 or Zenith-80, it was called Revue for export. But much rarer under this name - Revue 6×6.

These cameras were very expensive at 400 Rubles, which represented 6 months salary to the average Soviet citizen. This means that production was very limited and these cameras and lenses are rare. Variation three can also be found marked Zenit 80 and were produced for TO&E in England

The Salyut (later Kiev-88) was very expensive when it was built, about half a year’s salary for an average Soviet worker, and was therefore sold and produced in very small numbers. This means that production has been very limited and these cameras and lenses are rare.

The camera is very robust and does what it should do: a lot of fun and, above all, VERY good photos that are in no way inferior to those of an expensive ROLLEI or HASSELBLAD.
