Posted - Mar 02 2025 : 2:18:12 PM Hello,
I think this might be of interest to you all too, so I have put all my repair instructions, which were scattered all over my website, together on one page. All pages are still in German, but I will translate them into English in the future.
the Kiev service is more of a quick and dirty service, like the Zorki 4. I disassemble the Kievs and Contax quite extensively, but I have not yet disassembled the shutter itself. Recently I had a broken Kiev shutter where the spring of the first curtain had no more strength. I then took it all apart. You can't get it back together again, everything is too small... A FED or Zorki shutter looks crude and primitive in comparison ;-) But have fun looking at it anyway.

Amitiés. Jacques.
