Hello all,
My wife and I are moving some gear around and this Bronica system is getting cut. It was her first medium format setup that I bought for her about 1.5 years ago. It's been great, but she has recently acquired a Hasselblad and would like to get some different gear. For sale are the following items:
Bronica ETRS Body w/ 120 Back: 6/10
The camera shows moderate wear but no signs of abuse. There is some brassing and nicks in the finish and the leather is peeling in some places. It does work well though. There's an extra 120 back with carrying case, but the back is a little funky. It works, but it takes some finagling. You might be better at it than we were.
Bronica MC 50mm f/2.8: 8/10
This lens shows normal use. Mostly it's just dusty from sitting. It includes a rear cap, but no front cap. It does have a Hoya filter on it and also includes a wide-angle metal screw-in hood. Lens is free of scratches and the aperture is snappy with smooth focus.
Bronica 75mm f/2.8: 7/10
This lens shows moderate wear. It's all on the barrel and the lens functions flawlessly. The glass is clean and clear and the aperture is snappy with smooth focus. This includes a front cap and Hoya filter but no rear cap. It came on the camera as a kit and didn't include it.
Bronica MC 150mm f/3.5: 8/10
This lens is clean and shows light use. The aperture is snappy and the focus is smooth. The lens is free of scratches but, like the other two has some dust inside, but nothing to affect image quality. This lens includes both front and rear caps and a Hoya filter.
Bronica AE II Metered Finder: 8/10
Finder works well and shows some use. No abuse. Mirror is clean and bright. The leatherette on the little knob is peeling slightly.
Bronica Motor Winder with AA Insert: 8/10
Winder works as it should and looks good. Slight signs of use.
All of this gear works and is in fairly good cosmetic condition. The body is the worst of it, but apparently they can be had on the cheap from the forums, etc. The lenses are all clean and scratch-free except for the barrels which show use but not abuse. This is the same for the prism and the winder.
We're looking to try and sell this as a kit so we're not left with bits and pieces. Our asking price is $635 with PayPal and shipping within the US. I will happily split the cost of shipping internationally if anyone is interested.
Images are Dead Link Removed. Forgive the quality as I only had a G10 available. Also, this stuff shows some dust as it's been sitting for about 3 months with no use. A little elbow grease will get it all polished right up for you.
Please PM or email me with questions or offers. No trades at this time. I have great feedback at FredMiranda and RangefinderForum under user ID matthewm. And on eBay under the seller ID shutterbuttonfrenzy.
Thanks,
Matthew Morse
