matej_vatovec Posted August 29, 2004 Share Posted August 29, 2004 I have a chance to buy a Zorki 4 camera. I was wondering how it behaves, if it's somewhat "compact" etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luis triguez Posted August 29, 2004 Share Posted August 29, 2004 Good camera and a good lens: "The standard Jupiter-8 f2/50mm is an exact copy of the superb Zeiss-Sonnar, it is of six element configuration. In 1957 it was redesigned with improved optical performance that exceeded the original German lens" Itsn't a bad idea if you go and take the FREE Owners Manual from: http://www.fortunecity.com/marina/marine/569/rusrngfdrs/zorki4.html Engoy it and remember that allmost any Canon Serenar Lens or Leica or Nikon with 39 mm diametaer, can fit into your Zorki body. If you are interested whit cameras prior 1970, Try also the Classic Camera Forum in Photo.net. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
klix Posted August 29, 2004 Share Posted August 29, 2004 I had one, but couldn't get used to its quirks -- my problem, NOT the camera's. If you can get used to it, then it's a wonderful shooter. The things Matt Denton reports in his website reflect my experience with the Zorki 4. http://homepage.mac.com/mattdenton/photo/cameras/zorki_4.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
