Hi everybody, I'd like to know what is the camera in this pic (see below). I suspect it is a Russian (or Soviet bloc) brand camera, the photo is from the late 60s. Thanks to whoever can help me.

Ok this is a tough one as the image provided isn't very clear. But let's try to find some resemblance with the Praktica Nova wich i think it is. 1) the angeled shutterbutton on the front of the camera. 2) the selenium meter on the front of the prism. 3) the collar around the rewind cranck 4) the typical "ever ready case" The lens however is a mystery to me, but because the Praktica had M42 it could be just about anything. this is a slightly later model without the selenium meter but i guess you'll agree the resemblance.

Could well be a Zenit E, looking at the shape of an apparent light meter sensor over the lens. I am not sure that it is a release button next to the lens, but it could well be, making it a Praktica.
Is there any additional context info that could help?

I'm sure its a Praktica, the lens looks like an Orestor
