It is really excited to compare such twins. Meeting again after 80 years.
I have 2 FED-Zorki but almost twins. There were produced 4 cameras between them. I have to find those 4 cameras and than I'll have permission to place photo of them here. ;-)

Sure. As I remember numbers of my FED-Zorki are: 2948 and 2953.
Where are 2949, 2950, 2951 and 2952 ? ;)

| Vlad! Unfortunately, this is not my trinity! I have two chambers of which have an interval of one year. One camera sold a year later came the second, and the first was gone! I bite your elbows until now! |

You don't have a trinity. But three pairs are not bad, even at playing poker!
I only have two twins (NKVD+S and 2xZorki 1a). No doubt you beat me, Alexey!

Two FED-Zorki twins from 1949. This beats everything, maybe except the trinity.

Fabulous, Alexey!
Note that I have the s/n 264. If ever you find the s/n 263...
But first, we wait for Fed-Arsenal twins!

And that is not done by polishing: someone added a lot of value to the camera with re-surfacing work. But same time spoiled the history...

Hi Jacques

These two Alba are 6B and 5
The 5 has lever as if it was a 5B....

To be serious.
Perhaps you could open a specific thread about the Sport, Fred?
It would be much interesting to know the detailed evolution of this series.
You are the only one who can do that, certainly...

Thanks, Alexey for these two cameras, a NKVD 1d and a S.
So, once more we see that the Fed S certainly were not numbered by batches. Really very curious.
I really wonder if we will find the same for Fed accessories: http://ussrphoto.com/Forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=3180

Hi all
I have the black one for several years and the chrome one arrived last week from an English auction room...
Maybe they come from different areas and lens engraving is different, but how to explain the consecutive numbers on bodies and same number on lenses??? It's more than a coincidence I think... I suppose they were made by same guy?

Ha ha!
If you have too many photosnipers at home, perhaps some of us could help you, Alexey?
But I suppose that the three ones are not yours...
If possible, would you have the s/n of the bodies, just to compare with the others we have?

No, I had not seen that, Guido.
I was just wondering about these ultra rare items... (thanks, Alexey!)
It seems that the "4" are not always the same, open or closed. Probably you are right. But I am not sure to see correctly.

So, a 1,5/5cm lens, officially. But possibly 6cm, by S.H., and by the diameter...

Interesting. It seems that the s/n 7027 has a Fed-Zorki speed dial, and the 7026 already a Zorki one.
Thanks, Alexey. |

Yes, I wonder if the speed dial was changed in 7076 in a service some yesrs after production.
Or maybe in a factory there was one box with "old" and "new" speed dials and worker choosed them randomly. |

I have a good listing about Fed-Zorki and Zorki 1a (but I am not alone, eh, Alexey!). It seems that speed dials and button release were mixed up to s/n 9000-10000.
So, a great box with mixed parts, probably...

Friends!
In a particular case, Zorki #07026 is not authentic. In Russia, such options are called "Cutlet".
But the top cover in any case is original and that's why we will be happy because it has a twin. |

Thanks Jacques
I saw recently Zorki number 67XX. There were "old" speed dial and "old" knobs. |

Ha, ha!
When I saw your post, Alexey, I rushed to my board, but the Fed 1a s/n 4642 is always here!
We already discussed about this camera here.
http://ussrphoto.com/Forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=2002
For me, it's a mix Fed/Leica, with a Leica shutter box. All that was re-chromed together: the chrome is homogeneous and finer than on the other pre production prewar cameras. As for the lens, a mix again with the body of an Elmar and the optics from a Fed (position of the diaphragm). Really, much work: the owner was attached to this camera.
Amitiés. Jacques. |
