Author Message   JW de Leeuw Rating: N/A Votes: 0 Posted on Wednesday, February 11, 2004 - 11:47 am:    I recently acquired a 1961 Zenit C and am left with two remaining problems after cleaning and lubricating it: firstly I am facing problems with the bottom loading of the film (I can't get the film in the right position/the sprocket doesn't align with the perforation and therefor keeps tearing the film). Any tips & tricks for this? Secondly the 1/30 keeps faltering (curtain sticks) whereas other speeds seem OK. Is this a common problem? Any advice will be greatly appreciated, JW- UTRECHT/THE NETHERLANDS
