Hello,

Last night I was going to take my Zorki 1 out for some color night construction shots when I just relized that it does not fit my Tripod thread.

My Leica fits (hell everything fits) the hole on the Zorki is much larger. Is there an adaptor for this? Thanks
 
Buy a few of them and then just screw one into the socket using a coin. I think that I must have bought 4-6 of them and just have them in all of the FSU cameras that I use: Kiev 2, Zorki, and Moskvas.
 
Zorki went to the 1/4-inch standard with the 4K (I think that's the earliest). I have two tripods and converted on to 3/8 so I don't need the adapter.
 
I bought the singe adapter the other day and right after found that I could have gotten a bag of 10 for just a few dollars more. Check the big online shops for "3/8 inch to 1/4 inch adapter" and you should find them easily. I would not spend the $14 on fee-bay for a single adapter as they should cost no more than a few dollars new.
