Small handicrafts 1x1

Almost all Russian cameras that you buy at flea markets, on the Internet or elsewhere do not work satisfactorily. They therefore need to be disassembled, cleaned and repaired if necessary.

You are welcome to contact me if you would like to have your FED or Zorki overhauled.

I accompanied a few repairs with my camera. Maybe this will be an incentive for some of you to take on the task yourself. However, suitable tools, a steady hand and sometimes a lot of patience are prerequisites for the task.
