For Sale: Bronica ETRS Medium Format 645 system with five lenses, speed grip, hard-to-find waist level finder, prism finder, two 120 film backs, circular-polarizing and red and yellow filters, all in top-notch condition! Lenses were all bought from KEH at EX or EX+.

Selling for $800. Current price for all of this purchased individually on eBay/via KEH.com is nearly $1200, $400 off list, that saves you 33.3333333333etc.% -- this deal cannot be beat, I must be CRAZY. :blink::sideways::eek::crazy:

This system has been a top performer for me for several years, but I am focusing on other equipment these days. Take advantage of my camera ADD to step right into a highly-usable system that took me well over a year to assemble.

Everything on this camera works perfectly. Shutter speeds are great, photos are properly exposed as metered (no meter included, I use a variety of off-camera meters). Shutter and advance work perfectly, plenty of example photos at https://www.flickr.com/search/?user_id=51479229@N04&view_all=1&text=bronica.

This listing includes all of the following:

  • Bronica ETRS body - solid cosmetic shape and top-notch working condition.
  • Lens: 75mm F2.8 PE - The PE series lenses are the top tier of ETR-series lenses from Bronica with high-tech coatings and immaculate element design, and every lens in this collection is a PE version. This is the standard lens for the system, and performs great.
  • Lens: 250mm F5.6 PE - long, sharp, relatively fast lens for the size and form factor.
  • Lens: 135mm F4 PE - This is the standard portrait lens length for Bronica cameras. The lens is designed to take sharper photos at large apertures than other lenses, and will take flattering portraits as well as being useful as a medium-length telephoto.
  • Lens: 105mm F4.5 PE Macro(1:1) - This is a fantastic 1:1 Macro lens, shooting ultra-sharp close-ups, right up to the front of the lens. Easily the best macro I have ever used. This is the lens that has made me hesitate to sell this camera.
  • Lens: 40mm F4 PE - Wide angle lens, great characteristics.
  • Speed Grip E - Speed shooting handle that makes the system highly-useful for action shots and indoor work. Really makes this system sing.
  • 120 back (EI series) - This is one of the later, top-of-the-line backs with two thumb releases for added security. Includes dark slide.
  • 120 back - A late example of the earlier back series, with a single release. New light seals and great working condition. Includes dark slide.
  • Waist level finder - these are hard to find and always expensive. This one is in perfect condition.
  • Prism finder - The only cosmetic issue in the system at all is some denting on this prism body, can be seen in the side view photo. Looks like someone dropped it at some point, but still renders bright with no cracks or other problems.
  • Red and yellow filters - for black-and-white work, Tiffen brand.
  • Circular polarizing filter - Cut through haze, shoot through glass, or look into water past reflections with this great filter. Hoya brand.
  • 3 ND Filters, no brand on them. Cheapie but glass.
  • Bronica strap - Blue and yellow strap, difficult to find in this good of shape.

I will ship meticulously over-wrapped in bubble wrap and newspaper, via USPS.
