Does anybody know how to adjust the focusing of Iskra?
My Iskra has a little bit problem that the yellow patch is over at the infinity.
Is there anything outside that I can adjust, like Fed or Zorki? Thanks a lot in advance.
 
optikhit, if you look at the front of the camera, on the lower right of the lens, there is a small screw that adjusts the rangefinder infinity point. Look closely for an even smaller locking screw and loosen before you adjust the main one. Your 6x6 MF Iskra will "blow away" any SF Leica. :D A larger negative size almost always "trumps" everything else. :) Regards. :angel:

Hi, Iskra 2, I've done that. The smallest screw is too difficult to be touched. Anyway it is done. Thank you very very much!
Yes I am absolutely agree with you about the film size. Especially I prefer the folders.
I also have two Moskva 5. They both can produce nice image. The Iskra is my favorite because I can shot without tripod.
Regards...
