Question about fake Leica---Zorki-C

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Leica Photography : One Thread

I just want to ask a stupid question that how to load a negative film to the camera Zorki-C?? I can just put the negative inside the camera and make sure it is stable in one side but I can't make it stick to the other side(the pillar) even the negative is hooked by the pin, so I can't turn the loading button and shoot the photos.

My Zorki, a 4K, has a pillar with slots in it for sliding the film into. Loading film is just about the only feature of the Zorki I have not had trouble with. You must slide the film ("neg" as you say. It is film until it is developed, then after that it becomes a neg) well into the slots to make sure it catches.

If you do not have slots on the pillar, something is wrong or missing.

Cheers
