Like our name says, the heart and soul of our operation is the sales and service of Kiev medium format products. It is one thing to just import and sell these cameras but, as anyone who had purchased one before we came on the scene could tell you, it's very much another thing to bring these cameras up to the quality level which the American consumer has come to expect in their photographic equipment. We at Kiev/USA are dedicated to making your purchase and ownership of Kiev cameras and accessories as trouble-free as possible. With our FREE exclusive one-year warranty, and our 30-day return policy, you can be thoroughly comfortable buying your Kiev equipment from us.

Feel free to browse though our website to see what we do, what we sell, and what we can do to help you get the most out of your Kiev camera equipment.

While you're here, also remember that we carry an amazing array of collectible Russian cameras, ranging from FED to Zarya, including names such as Sputnik, Lomo, Sport, Leningrad, Moskva, Start, Skolnik, Lubitel, Narciss, Iskra, Krystall. Most of these are fully manual, most are 35mm or medium format, and were produced in Russia during the 30's through the 60's. We also have some very rare pre-30's models! Just call us at 203-300-0300 or email us with your inquiry.

To top it all off, we carry a wide selection of other precision Russian import specialty items such as loupes, binoculars, telescopes, night-vision scopes, and Russian watches. Your inquiries are always welcome.

• We have strived in every way to make this site as useful, easy to navigate, and informative as possible, but, when it comes to pricing, everything is in a constant state of change. Therefore, we have relegated all pricing information to our price list page. If you are looking for prices on several items, to minimize reloading time, we suggest that you click on the PRICE LIST button on the left sidebar, and our price list will appear in a new window. From that point on, do not click on any price links on any of the descriptive pages, simply refer back to the price list window. Otherwise, you'll have a jumble of price lists open on your desktop and you might just feel like telling us to head for Siberia!
