Zorki 4 changed the speed before winding now it's stuck

[steven_e007]

I was thinking of selling my Zorki 4K on fleeBay (I didn't want to, but am getting 'grief' about the number of cameras I own )

I decided to keep the Zorki when I realised they sell for such very low prices. Maybe it is because of where I am... (UK), but I'd check your local ebbeeGumay and other outlets, paying myself even the minimum working wage I wouldn't spend more than an hour on one before chucking it in the bin and buying another becomes the only sensible option - unless of course you really *need* to fix it.

Good morning, GeofFox;

Please check the "URL" or Internet Address for Isaak Maizenberg's book. That one did not work for me when I just "clicked" on it, but searching for Isaak S. Maizenberg produced the same URL or address, and clicking on that one did work. And, please note that the ".pdf" file is over 18 MegaBytes long (18MB+). It took a while to download it over my RF modem.

In any case, thank you for providing the reference. Now to see what happens if I try to print out all 307 pages.

Hi Ralph

There was a restriction with quoting the full link, but I see you found the book OK.


I have a "stuck" Zorki-4K coming in the mail, so hopefully the combination of the RFF CLA pdf and Isaac's book will solve my problem, too.

Cheers
Geoff
