A fun half-frame camera from the 1960s in very good condition with case and filters. The camera is clean with minimal marks. Interior is clean, no light leaks. Meter works well- has default automatic exposure (shutter priority) with manual settings possible. Comes with 2 batteries, modern ones so you might need to fine-tune ASA setting in the beginning. Focus is smooth and accurate, scale on both exterior and through viewfinder. Viewfinder is clean. Lens is clean.
AND!! The winder works well and is strong. You turn the black knob on the bottom of the camera to wind up the spring motor. Then when you release the shutter button, film is automatically wound to next frame. It makes a great grab shot camera.
A solid mainly mechanical camera
[NOTE: the silver bug soft release shown in photos is NOT part of the package. SOrry, forgot to remove it for photos)
Comes with a 48mm skylight filter (shown in photos), 48mm ND2 and Orange filter, 48 to 49 adapter, 49mm XO green-yellow filter. Original case in good condition.
As you might tell from the filters, I used it for six months with Tri-X film. Developed in Rodinal, had a great time. But now that exploration of grain in the digital age is out of my system and I am back to 6x9 film. I can see this sitting in the drawer for years if I don't get it into the hands of someone else to use it.
$90 OBO plus shipping. US shipping $8.50, others inquire.
