Zenit cameras (sometimes badged in Cyrillic, ЗЕНИТ) were made by the KMZ factory near Moscow. The original Zenit was an SLR based on the Zorki rangefinder.

The early Zenit SLR have a specific screw mount, 39mm in diameter, sometimes called "ZM39" (or "Zenit M39") to distinguish it from the regular M39 (or Leica thread mount). If you mount an LTM lens on these cameras you can only focus at close range, not at infinity, due to the lens position.
