Description
The
Zorki-4K is the last Zorki
model. The Krasnogorsk factory produced this model from 1972 to 1978. It is
identical to the Zorki-4, but one important feature was added – the traditional
winding knob was replaced with the crank lever.
This camera has the following features – a removable back cover, a rangefinder
coupled with a large and bright viewfinder, a dioptric adjustment of the viewfinder,
and self-timer. It also features a PC flash socket; the flash sync timing can
be set for both electronic flash and a flash bulb. The body and the back cover
were cast, which made the camera rigid and stable.
As any Soviet Leica type camera, Zorki-4K is compatible with any 39 mm Leica TM lens.
- Shutter speeds: B, 1 – 1/1000. Please
note:
for normal shutter operation, KMZ recommends changing shutter speeds after
the film is wound and the shutter cocked.
The camera body was made in the early 1970’s.
Tony Muccitelli –
I finally decided to pick up a 4K because of the apparent convenience of having a lever film wind. Turns out to be really nice to use. This camera gives you the durability of the Zorki 4 with the ease of operation of the Zorki 5 or 6. Its only shortcoming is the lack of strap lugs, otherwise it’s first rate. As usual buying from Yuri was both easy and , with his trademark fast delivery, enjoyable. This is a nice camera from a good dealer.
David Anderson –
Recently ordered one of these (with an Industar-22 Lens) from Yuri. He was very helpful in making suggestions during the order process and I like the camera very much. Everything works smoothly and well – quite an improvement over my experience with e-bay. Will stick with this site in future Russian camera purchases.
