Zorki 4 - My Photographic Time Tunnel

[@gfrigyeske]

When I was 6, my father used to take photos of me with a zorki 4....now I am 33, my father is gone and just today I found his camera...brought tears to my eyes... man...what an added value, thanks for the upload !

[@qipingzhang6156]

this ultraman music... great vid man

[@93fishi]

Hey, great video! I had a clear-out of my loft and found, originally boxed, a Zorki-4. It's a very nice camera, I normally shoot with a Canon 600D and I've never shot with an old camera. I'm going to buy some films and have a go with it, you took some fantastic photos using yours!

[@algoyene]

What's the music's title / theme? Sounds like 70's anime from Japan.

[@rmrfboy]

tnx for sharing man. that music is epic! love it.

[@northstar1950]

Those photos shown at the end are impressive.

[@BermanYaniv]

+northstar1950 Thank you!

[@markharris5771]

Normally I don’t like the videos with no talking. But this one was incredibly well done and unfortunately I’m of a generation that faintly recognised the TV music of the 60s and 70s.

[@RodolfoFelici]

Great video, and great score too!! Where did you take this music? It seems to me the soundtrack of one of the episodes of Space 1999...

[@Bewar3them00n]

I've got the same set up, except my J12 is black, got the turret viewfinder too, I wasn't too sure about the camera, but after shooting with the J8 I got some very unique shots, nice Bokeh too! Now I'm hooked on the Zorki

[@HarmFlo]

all the FED cameras? Do you know if the FED 3 aso has one?

[@lalalla825]

stunning photos!

[@RestorationAustralia]

I have the Zorki 4 export version with a black Jupiter 8, awesome camera. Who needs the Leica?

[@timzoneking]

@BermanYaniv oh, and how do you like the turret viewfinder? is it easy to use?

[@vestern22]

Hi, I got one today from and old couple, the camera was made in 1966, I don't know how to focus on range finders. I see blurry pic through viewfinder, occasionally I can see one small yellow rectangle. How will I know the subject is in focus?

[@markharris5771]

I have the Zorki 4K but I have never run colour film through it, you've definitely inspired me to try some. Excellent shots at the end, where these off the film you loaded the Agfa? If so it's the second time in two days I've been impressed with this film.your lens is very sharp too. A very good video.

[@BermanYaniv]

Thank you Mark :-)

[@Elmercuaton]

hello berman thanks for uploading this video i just bought my zorki 4 but i think there something missing inside the film holder is not here do oyu think i can find this in online maybe you have a link and that turret view finder where can i find that. thanks for your help.

[@BermanYaniv]

+elmer cuaton Hey Elmer, it might be easier to buy a new working-Zorki. It's not an expansive camera. I guess you can find the turret on eBay. Good Luck!

[@Elmercuaton]

thanks for your reply.

[@bucksellers5364]

+elmer cuaton...Do you mean the take up spool ? ....Or the film pressure plate?... If its the take up spool you can buy one very cheaply on ebay...and even if its the pressure plate they can be found on many pars cameras...Ebay has just about anything you could imagine...and then some you couldn't imagine....lol...

[@godofhope]

Elmer Cuaton same here... my grandpas Zorki 4 did not contain this roll for the film :( It's useless now... how to get one ???

[@Elmercuaton]

I've got already the guy selling for me he give the film holder. still i've never tried my Zorki 4 i just bought this for collection.

[@benzo430]

does the turret just give you framing for different lenses 28mm,50mm, 135mm ect.? I have the Zorki C!!!

[@BermanYaniv]

Yes, the turret is only for framing. It imitates the different lenses you can use with the Zorki.

[@benzo430]

***** Awesome thanks!!

[@pioul1]

appareil étonnant rappelant bien sûr le mythique Leica M1. Il demeure malgré son grand âge, une référence au niveau des optiques réalisées en fluorine !!!!. Il demeure très discret à l'usage...à condition de savoir s'en servir rapidement. Déclencheur assez silencieux. Réclame un bon entraînement avant de se lancer dans des shoots performants. (appareil de légende).

Hallo, I just got ZORKIJ-4 also. It seem it takes a very beautiful shots! May I kindly ask you where can I find instruction "how to" manual? May the light be good. Frank

[@neilpiper9889]

Why the turret viewfinder when you have no other lenses?

[@BermanYaniv]

The view from a rangefinder viewfinder does not show you the size of the lens installed on the camera. If you wish to understand the proportions of the lens you need the turret. Even if you have only one lens. I'm not saying it should be used regularly, I just show it because I have it.

[@timzoneking]

ah! it's jupiter 12 isn't it?　so it can be used on the zorki 4? just bought a zorki 4 and a j 12 nice video!

[@weedrunkglasgowman]

Man, that was a creepy video.....that music!!!!!

[@WenJenqChen]

Soviet things go well with creepy music lol

[@lawrencesimon]

Can I ask what film you used?

[@abel2088]

Amazing!! Its truly an Art Form!!

[@thegreatvanziniphotos5976]

Love my Zorki!

[@TheDelboyoelmundo]

thats a revelation, I have one of these and never put a roll of film thru. is that 100 asa, its looks sharp specially the group photos.

[@BermanYaniv]

Thanks. Yes, you should try taking some photos with this camera.

[@coglians79]

why don't buy an exposure meter? gossen lunasix 3 is very professional and cheap...

[@DominikKng]

oooh hello beautiful Jupiter-12! :D

[@zenoist2]

Cool video! Thx for uploading this!

[@arz0n]

@luftbubi Use "Sunny 16".

[@scottfischer7033]

would rather hear you talking. The music is so bad I started crying and killed 7 people.

[@BermanYaniv]

Usually when people hear me talk the killing rate is much higher. Consider yourself lucky.

[@tinnimac]

***** Never mind talking, I like video anyway and didn't mind the music.

[@canturgan]

***** Lol

[@Polyiiz]

Thank you :D

[@shostakov66]

[@MishaHerzberg]
