Zorki RF Alignment Help

[gbenaim]

Hi,

Can someone point me in the direction of instructions on aligning a Zorki 4's rangefinder? Or if it's easy to explain, just tell me how. Someone told me to unscrew a cover screw from the front and that the adjustment screw is underneath, but I just wanted to make sure. Thanks.

Usually, the RF adjust will be either via a screw under the nameplate. This will depend upon whether we are talking about horizontal or vertical. My suggestion would be to go to The Rangefinder Forum and do a search there. You will find extensive articles and posts on how to do it. I might add that the most important thing is to do it at infinity focus and using a distant vertical object.

http://cameras.alfredklomp.com/zorki4/ has all sorts of info on your camera including a repair manual.

Good luck
