Smena (Russian: ?????) is a series of low-cost 35 mm film cameras manufactured in the Soviet Union by the LOMO factory from 1953 to 1991. These cameras were designed to be inexpensive and accessible to the public, made of bakelite or black plastic for the later models, and totally manually operated. Even winding of film is separated from shutter cocking. Their mode of operation was exclusively manual. In the 60s and 70s they were exported by Soviet era export conglomerate Mashpriborintorg (Russian: ???????????????). Austrian company Lomographische AG now promotes Smenas, as exclusive distributor under agreement with LOMO PLC.
