Today I picked up a Zorki 4 at a thrift shop. The shutter button kept falling out and I figured it would be an easy fix. Opening the top of the camera, I'd discovered the set screw had snapped. It was just long enough for the rewind ring to work but not hold the shutter button/shaft in place.

Does anyone have a spare set screw or where I can source one from? I sent an email to Fedka to see if he I could purchase one from him.

Thanks,
Michael

Edit: Title should be "Zorki 4..."

Rummaging around my junk, I found a longer screw that fix the threads but with a larger head. After grinding down the head and cutting it shorter, the new set screw went in perfectly.
