Hello! I just got my hands on a zorki 6 and noticed that on 1/30 it sometimes acts as Bulb. Do you know any ways of repairing this?
Thanks
Thanks

are you sure that inner screw in speed selector isnt loose and turning with outer ring? it happened on one of my z6 and i never knew which speed is selected so i made marking on a top plate.

I don't really think that is the problem (because it only happens at 1/30), but i'll tighten the screw in the morning. Thanks for the suggestion.

This is quite common for an FSU camera which has not been serviced for many years.
Dried grease and debris sometimes hold back the curtains enough to cause it to hang.
Check as best you can for lumps of grease, film chips etc in the gaps that the curtains run in. Some "exercise" of the shutter can also help to clear this, but overall it would probably benefit from a simple CLA.
