Canon 7 Rangefinder
The camera is in good (user) condition. Please see photos for my details, and ask if you have any questions.
I ran a roll of film through the camera as a test and developed the film. The film spacing is even and the shutter speeds seem accurate. But I cannot guarantee their accuracy. Without a CLA, I would expect that they are off a bit. What I can say is that all shutter speeds fire.
The rangefinder also seems accurate, but I would also expect it to be slightly off given the age of the camera. The self-timer was not tested, I will not test it, and I would not recommend using it. The shutter curtain has wrinkles in it, which is standard for this camera. Light seals probably need to be replaced, but I didn't see any light leaks on my test roll. The light meter is not responsive.

Canon 135mm f/3.5 LTM Lens
This lens was CLA'd by Youxin Ye. It includes front and rear caps, though the front lens cap has a crack in it. It doesn't seem to impact the caps ability to function as a cap. When I purchased this lens the aperture adjustment was stiff, which is why I sent it to Youxin. The focus and aperture adjustment are smooth and the optics are in great condition (free of haze, scratches, or fungus). The front element has some light cleaning marks. The focus is smooth, though it is tighter than some of my other lenses. This is either a good thing (allows for greater precision) or a bad thing (harder to turn), depending on your perspective...but I wanted to put it out there.
Price: $150 plus shipping
I'll consider offers for either item.
Thanks!
