I have for sale an excellent condition Burke and James Press Camera with a Schneider Symmar-S 180mm Multicoated. Here's the rundown on the camera:

-Bellows are in excellent shape and light tight
-All movements work perfectly
-Brand new custom cut ground glass
-Revolving back
-Cosmetically it's in excellent condition as well

The Lens:

-Glass is clean and clear
-Shutter sounds accurate but has not be professionally tested
-Aperture clean and crips
-Includes front and rear caps
-Some Schneideritis present but nothing that would affect image quality

Also included is a brand new cable release. The lens is bigger than your average press lens so the camera will not close with the lens mounted. I hate to give up this awesome kit but I need a telephoto lens for my daughter's dance recitals.

Nice camera. FWIW, I recently bought some gear from Jim and everything was better than stated in his ad.

How about a Canon EF 70-210/f4?

I've researched it a bit as someone on another board suggested it but I really want the USM focusing because I'll shooting moving dancers with it (Highland and Ballet) so I need all the focusing speed I can get.

Thanks though,

Jim
