Bump and price lowered! Make an offer!

Bump and prices lowered! Make me an offer!

This camera gear is part of an inherited collection. I do not have the technical chops to determine how functional it is. At best I can say that everything looks visually to be in good condition with little wear marks, most of this still in its original boxes. Prices based on eBay sold...

This lens was included as part of an inherited collection, unfortunately did not include any camera to go with it. Focus ring rotates smoothly across all ranges; aperture rotates from f/2.0 to f/16 with more difficulty in the rotation. I'm not familiar with this lens so I do not know if this...

Thanks for the hints on what to check out on the Summitar. While it is neat looking, I'll probably end up listing it; thinking I will include videos of the various aspects adjusting/rotating/etc.

Hey retina, thanks for providing the model name. What is the best way to determine that is working condition without actually running film through it?

Thanks for the value estimations on the Speed Graphic, Rolleiflex and Summitar lens. They are definitely attractive on a shelf, but your estimates definitely seem worth putting in some leg work to find them new homes with folks who will use them.

Thanks for the hint about Blue Moon for value comparisons. I'll give them a search

Thanks Besk. Apparently my great aunt used a 2x3 version of one of these when she worked for the Pittsburgh Kansas newspaper. I appreciate the extra info.

Thanks thinkbrown, the lack of film would definitely put a damper on the reusability factor. Its a fine looking camera kit

Canon Booster, which research shows helped taking meter readings in very dark scenarios.

Canon Motor Drive Set, which I'm imagining powers the film chamber above. All I can think here is "developing film must have been pricey"

Canon Film Chamber 250. From what I can tell, you can use this with the motor drive set to do some machine gun photography. Looks like it hasn't been touched based on the packaging

We are now moving to the part of our show where I've got some boxed up accessories that went with a Canon F-1 (original?) SLR. They look very new but one again I don't have a way to test functionality.

The viewfinder on this guy is absolutely tiny... I can't imaging trying to compose through it. Cinemaster II video camera
