Linhof Tech Model IV for sale with 2 lenses -- a 150mm f5.6 Schneider Symmar-S in a modern Copal 0 shutter and a 210mm f5.6 Sironar N MC in a modern Copal 1 shutter. Great outfit for large format, whether you're just starting out or have been shooting for years.
I could go on gushing over this camera, but basically what you need to know is that this one has all the movements you need in a field camera, with controls that make sense and are easy to operate, PLUS the ability to shoot handheld, with a rangefinder (and a sport finder) and a molded grip.
There are some scuffs to the leather, so I would say the leather, overall, is probably rates an 8 out of 10; however, the rest of the camera is in excellent shape. It comes with a 150mm Cam that does NOT match the Symmar-S, but I didn't use the rangefinder, as I don't shoot handheld or do Polaroids (not that I'm knocking either, of course). Ground glass is perfect; back is solid and comes off the way it is supposed to, without being loose.
Both lenses are in great condition; there is some obvious Schneideritis in the 150mm Symmar S, but it has never affected the quality of my images. The 210mm Sironar N is very nearly mint, with some slight coating marks that are hard to see.
Asking $1125, via PayPal, plus shipping. If you don't want or need both lenses, you can have the camera with the lens of your choice for $925.
