I picked up a Zorki 4K and had it CLA'd by a local repair tech (who insisted that a "rangefinder is a rangefinder", and didn't hesitate when asked about FSU cameras). The speeds were seriously off when I bought it, but after he got through with it everything works very well.
I only have 1 issue with it - the tech said the flash sync connector wasn't connected properly, and as far as he could see there was only a "bulb" setting for the flash sync anyway, so he didn't connect it. I have since read that's not actually correct, and if connected properly it can be used with electronic flash.
So, if you have it CLA'd, have the tech check to make sure the flash sync is properly connected.
