| Zorki 4K with Jupiter 12 lens |
The Zorki 4K is a 1970s Soviet-era rangefinder camera based on the Leica. While KMZ did produce a Zorki 5 and a Zorki 6, the Zorki 4K is actually the latest camera in the line, with a total of 524,610 cameras produced from 1972 to 1978. It usually came fitted with a Jupiter-8 50mm f/2 or Industar-50 50mm f/3.5, and a two-piece everready case. Domestic models were marked in cyrillic: Зоркий-4K.
The Zorki 4K is basically a Zorki 4 with the addition of a fixed take-up spool and a film advance lever instead of the knurled knob. The KMZ logo was moved to the left so it would not be covered by the advance lever and leave room for a rubber lever stop.
