Hello,
I'm a newly registered user.
I use Russian film cameras a Zorki 4 and Saluyt
I've got also 2 kiev6s with some problems, and I've found a repair manual for Kiev6c but is in russian (that I do not know)

So my question:
Is there someone able to translate it in English?
No problem to share the manual

Hoping my request does not conflict with rules, otherwise feel free to remove this post

Thanks all
Andrew

Hello all and thanks for useful links.

I have the manual for kiev6c but even with Google translator is difficult for me to understand
That's why I was asking if someone that knows Russian and English and knows film cameras terminology could try to translate it

Ciao Luiz,
there are some problems

the time setting, how to fix it
how to reassembly the focus screen
and also minor setting related to depth of field

but I'm not able to identify the pages....
as I've 2 cameras (the other one with broken curtains) the idea is to mix them into a working one

Ciao
