Film memo disk is totally black now, changed design of the shutter release knob. Yellow-white "LOMO" markings on the rear plate. 6-digits serial number.

PK7030. Camera identical to PK7020, but with regular "Lomo" logotype on the rear plate already. "Almaz" markings on camera's body yet. It's interesting to say, that two Almaz-103 cameras #8300020 (see PK7025 above) and #8300021 are true sisters by serial number indeed (see picture below), but both representing different types ...

PK7045. Camera identical to PK7040, but with both top plate and bottom plate, painted in special "Chameleon type" colour. Usually you need to use a flash to see this (see picture below). Seems to be the last type with 2 synchro contacts on body.
