this camera arrives some days ago. It is an export Zorki 4 with stamped latin name. Body and lens were made in 1966. The serial number of the body is 6614074, lens serial is 6615274, pretty close to the body.
The difference to normal latin stamped export Zorki 4 is the stamped name. It is narrower and more bold than the usual name. Look at the position of the 'Z' and the '4'.
I have never seen such an early export Zorki 4 before. Maybe this kind of name was used in a pre production run? Who knows more about it? As Aidas' site sais these cameras were made from 1967 on.
Earliest Export Zorki 4 with stamped latin name?
