Hi, Can anyone advise how to clean the internal side of the viewfinder glass on a Zorki 1 (front)? Hopefully this is not too difficult as I am no DIY expert! Thanks in advance.😀
 
The viefinder eyepiece unscrews (sometimes tight), you should then be able to clean its inside surface. You may then be able to reach through to the inside of the front window with a Q Tip or similar and clean that.

If not, the housing needs to come off and in so doing you may lose the rangefinder adjustment. Not a problem, just a little more work.
