Sold Canon F1n with Power Winder, 50/1.4 S.S.C, and some extras [EU]

[Laurent]

I'd like to "unload" some cameras, so this lovely F1 has to go. I had an offer on a local site, but the guy wanted to turn it in a "shelf queen" to show the Speed Finder... This camera is a user, not a shelf queen

It works like a charm, shows some brassing (the covers are not the originals, the serial # is much higher) and a dent on the prism. Meter works fine, foams have been repoaced (the back is a bit tight to open due to this).
The 50mm works fins, shows some wear but has no fungus.
The winder is missing the vertical shutter button, and the cover for the S/Off/C button is missing. It received a shock so the plastic covers are not pristine. Good news: works as fine as new (I replaced the power lines that were giving some trouble)

Included are the body and lens caps, the original plate for the body, plus an "L" flash coupler and a remote for the winder.

If it sells on APUG Photrio, % will be given to Photrio, and I'll add the Kanto MR-9 adapter as well as a working cell (changed some months ago, so has plenty of life).

I'd like to get €300, plus shipping (around €20)

This is such a good looking camera, I only wish I had a space in my bag for it but several of its brothers and Ftbql's cry out "no mas, no mas..." and I have to respect their wishes.

Good luck with you sale!

PS: try FIMO for new plastic button repairs/manufacturing.

Thanks !

The issue with that buttons is it relies on 3 'prongs' both for keeping it in place, lock the buttons and accurate the shutter. I'd have modeled a 3d printed one of I though it would work. May ne I'll do if the camera says too long before selling.

At the moment a replacement for a Pentax Spotmeter cover uses all my modelling brain power.

The winder will be sold separately on another channel.

The remainder is priced at €260 for Photrio members, with % given to the site.

Probably my favorite vintage 50mm!

I am in the market for an F1n. Just had an attempt on eBay go bad ("used, tested, functional" camera arrived with a bunch of undisclosed damage and some parts missing, and the seller is basically making eBay force his hand on accepting the return).

To be honest, the winder, flash coupler, and lens aren't interesting to me; I wouldn't use the winder or flash, and I already have a 50mm f/1.4. The MR-9 I could take or leave. But I would absolutely love a recently-serviced, everything confirmed working, user-grade F-1 to be my go-to 35mm workhorse alongside my FTb. Do you have any interest in selling body-only to someone who will definitely not let it turn into a shelf queen?

Hi, I may consider selling separately , but am in EU, so I'm not sure shipping across the ocean is reasonable at all.

Let me know! Hopefully it's not much worse than the ~$30USD or so I expect when ordering from Japan.

 

[Laurent]

well... I had a look, UPS does not suggest the USA as a destination, DHL wants norths of €100... And Fedex is even worse.
The French post office is the cheapest-ish at €53...

It was worth a try Good luck with sale!
