This is a non-commercial project, dedicated to soviet camera collectors!
Inside this website you’ll find a lot of soviet and russian cameras (c. 1929 ...) as well as many other collectable items, books, exposure meters etc. Well-known soviet camera brands like Fed, Zenit, Kiev, Zorki, Lubitel or Moskva are followed by less known collectables. My intention was to characterize the majority of my collectables, providing technical references as well as details interesting for camera collectors. Although having a nice collection of various vintage cine cameras, I'm still feeling a lack of time to place everything here. May be in near future? Although not being a professional photographer or even an active camera-user, I’m “sick” by camera collecting since 1993! I would like to say my special thanks to all my friends for camera related stuff donations!

English Manual for Repair Zorki FED Leica Camera. FED and Zorki. Zorki-4 Spools Wrong Size? - Misaligned Film - Photo.net Leica a. Alan McWhirter , Nov 01, 2009; 06:33 p.m.
I have recently bought a 1957 Zorki-4 which works extremely well except for one very annoying fault - the film does not run true within the guide rails, so leaving a dark slanting band along the top of each print due to the spools dropping downwards - as far as I can work out. Upon close investigation I found two surprising things; 1. A standard modern 35mm spool rattles up and down inside the camera if the camera is gently shaken (film fully retracted into the cassette for this test). 2.
The takeup spool does the same! It is not therefore surprising that during use the film drops downwards off its guide rail so that the exposed frame virtually encroaches on the sprocket holes at the top of the film. Tõnu Tamm , Nov 02, 2009; 07:17 a.m. This problem has already been discussed here: I don't think it has anything to do with take-up spool.
