That's true and it was the first thought (as probably was for most) but I decided to go this way since I'll probably touch again the subject of flash sync and how to make sure it works without a flash.
It's interesting to see how many ways I would have irreversibly damaged my camera if I tried to do this all by myself. I guarantee I would have ripped the head off those left-hand screws by turning them the wrong way. Lord knows it's easy enough to break them as it is.
@@AlinCiortea i would prefer if you'd put it on thingaverse or printables, so it can be used by everyone, it's the little things that makes these cameras still viable for use, if you dont intend to do so i will try my best to make one myself! (On a side note, this walkthrough has come at the right time, i have recently been flooded and my zorki 6 needed a cla more than ever, im trying to clean the curtains rn!)
@@AlinCiortea hey, i dont want to bother you but i've fully reassembled the camera and its seems to have a little problem, only at 1/30th the camera acts as if it is on bulb, but only if its in "landscape", if shoot vertically or upsidedown the shutter fires correctly, i may have lost a shim but i dont know where it should go or how thick it should be, can you help me find it's place? After removing the top plate i can see that the second curtain arm gets caught just like it does on B. Still, the walkthrough it's been fantastic and i hope to see more from you! Cheers from Italy
thanks for the video!
For the wires, you could just wrap one in tape and note down which socket the one with tape went to.

After dealing with a couple of them you start to see patterns and at least expect one to be lurking around.
Please can you release the .stl of the curtain tension key tool?
Sure. Leave an e-mail address and I'll send you the file.

@@nomecognome6359 that's true. I'll set up an account and upload it there.
I'm glad the series helps :)
