Taken with the Smena 8M, made in the USSR. The camera is fully manual and has a glass lens, but the build quality is pretty cheap. It's hell to get the focus right, so for this, my second roll through it, I upgraded to high speed film (Fujifilm Superia X-tra 800), so that I could work with a smaller aperture. Yeah, this one's a bit overexposed.

I think I'd take your focus distance problem as something of a challenge - go out with a tape-measure and check the markings!

A nice autumnal scene.

I like it, bvy. Actually took me a sec to figure out those were vines on a wall in the background. Almost has the effect of a sketch or drawing.

From yourSmena8 link ---> Taking pictures with an 8m is a true test of patience. Made me chuckle a bit.
