I typed "Iskra" into the search function and got this thread (http://www.rangefinderforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=16722&highlight=iskra) among many others. It's got some pretty good shots. Cheers.

Hello Joey, as CVBLZ (is Dylan using a zorki in your avatar?) says you can find some threads here about the ISKRA and other MF folders. Look this thread (http://www.rangefinderforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=29317&highlight=folder) and here (http://www.rangefinderforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=14868&highlight=folder+photo)
I have a folder in my gallery with 4 photos taken with it, and some of the forumers in those thread too.

My personal favourite photo I've taken with the Iskra:

A lot of people ask if I photoshopped the spinning background in, but I assure you that it's all in the lens. That's what I got when focusing as close as the Iskra will focus! There's a name for the phenomenon, but it escapes me. As for the saturated colours, those are due to using Agfa Ultra 50 film...sadly no longer available :(
