History

At the end of World War II, the KMZ factory in Krasnogorsk, Russia, began producing cameras. They started in 1946 with the Moskva line, but in 1948 - with the FED factory in Ukraine still not full production - they started producing FED cameras. At first they were marked "FED" with a KMZ logo, and then later they were known marked "FED-Zorki", but by 1949 they had made some design changes and thus began the Zorki line of rangefinder cameras.
