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. - Lens: Jupiter-8, f = 50 mm, 1:2,
coated, black finish (new style), 39 mm Leica th
read mount.
The camera is in EXC+ condition. The RF/VF is clear and contrasty, the lens
is clean as well.
Andres Magnusson –
I bought my second Zorki-4K
from fedka.com.It was much better than the first one I bought in Prague.The camera was in good shape and the viewfinder of 4k is excellent.
It has 1.2 or 1.5 magnification and a very good diopter correction, so it is easy to use without glasses.
So I was very happy until in mid roll I overchoked the shutter and the camera was out of work. The same thing happend to the first one.Now I have 2 non working 4k,s but use happly a Zorki 6 which is doing well with my Jupiter 8 ,9 and 11 lenses. Jupiter 8 is my favorite and is a bargin
for its price.
Olivier Sylvestre –
I bought my Zorki 4k from Fedka last year and it it in excellent condition for me! I simply love it, it works smoooooothly and it is one of my main street shooters, because although it is not as silent has a Leica, it makes much less noise than my SLRs. Some don’t like FSU cameras: they’ve never tried Fedka cameras.
