The Kiev-30 was a subminiature camera of Soviet production. For transport in the vest pocket it was collapsible to 3/4 of its size. On the camera back was a two slice analog calculator for shutter/aperture determination with ASA-value and weather symbols as input variables. Its concept was a little like that of the Minolta 16, but it had the advantage to have a third thumb-wheel for focusing that appears when the camera is opened for usage.
