Poor Zorki 6

[leica M2 fan]

I ran a roll of color film through my Zorki 6 early last week and when I got it back many of the 24 exposures had light streaks, really bad ones ! I quickly ordered the kit from Jon Goodman and they arrived 2 days later. Within one hour I had the Zork resealed and ready to go . Got back a 12 exp test roll of Superia ( which, I think, is a very good negative film) and they are spectacular with the I-61 L/D lens. I am ecstatic because I really like this camera and look forward to using it out in the street again.😀

Enjoy your Z6 and please post a few pics here.
My yet-to-be-mended Zorki 6 waits for a few (more) hours attention. They look good and have a very nice veiwfinder and rf patch.
What is good in your photos, sharpness, contrast, colours?
We all need to know!

and all who responded, thanks for the comments.The Zorki with the I-61L/D has good sharpness, very accurate color and excellent contrast. You couldn't ask for more. I haven't tried B&W with it yet, that will come soon I hope. My heart sank when I saw the light streaks but thanks to Jon Goodman's kit all is good and it has rejoined the " dark side "🙂 I took some shots at a little playground here with bright red and blue throughout and it is spectacular. If
I could only get the hang of uploading I'd post it. I'll try to attach a photo or two.Again, thanks to all.
