Title: Archive: Soviet Photography
Post by: cs1 on June 02, 2019, 09:08:17 AM

Archive.org has many issues of the Soviet Photography magazine available for download here. I can't read or understand Russian but the photos speak for themselves and are well worth looking at. You can find the archive here:

What a treasure trove, thanks for posting this! I don't understand Russian either, but I bookmarked it straight away; lots of good stuff.

These look really good.
With all the Russian stuff in photography, knowing Cyrillic would come in handy.

I agree. I browsed a number of issues and it looks like there're quite a number of really interesting technical articles in there. I used the Google Translator app to be able to read a few headlines and captions. But that's no option for whole articles.
