I bought a broken zorki 4 the other day, i figured i would try to fix it using the how to CVA on this site.
Of course it was way harder then I suspected and i've put way to much time in it all ready, but I'm not ready to give up yet. I do need a little (or more likely a lot of) help.
-I got the camera dismantled (photo 1) but when I wind it and release the shutter curtain 1 disappears, but the second curtain doesn't come out.


Does anybody know how to continue?
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

never mind, I figured it out!
it works!
for who ever wants to know the second curtain doesn't move when the slow speed mechanism is removed.
I'm going try it out

The curtain is being held by the arm you see. It slides in
and out. Just push it 'in' out of the way when you're firing
the shutter. Things can get a little tricky when you take
off the slow speed assembly. Best to look at one of the
tutorials.

he martin thanks for the reply.
With a lot of luck i got the camera to work again.
All the shutters sound about right.
