Hi,
I havent picked up a film camera in quite some time and have decided to return to the fray. In my dubious photographic past I have used a lot of old FSU gear mainly SLR and fixed units but also a fed RF or two.
I have Just purchased a Zorki 4k from fleabay along with the usual jupiter 8 lense, I have also purchased some rolls of my old fav film, illford XP2 super and was wondering before I go on the photographic rampage around my home town is there anything peculiar to the Zorki I should be aware of? Camera should be arriving this week, wont have time or money to get it serviced so hoping for a runner.
Plan is to do a photo shoot around my home town of Newport, South Wales as I am moving soon and would like to build a photo library of the sights of Newport. And my weapons of choice will be my trusty Lubitel 166U, the new Zorki and probuably a zenit (prob an 11 or EM) with a small selection of lenses.
Photo shoot should be Sunday the 5th and Monday 6th September.
