The last thread got very busy, and I have only the camera left now.


In excellent shape, a few minor cosmetic blemishes, works perfectly.


Serviced in Spring 2014, no issues; new GG hood.


Photos are here: http://s1367.photobucket.com/user/Ari4000/library/For Sale?sort=6&page=1


Includes:
- Regular & bag bellows, both in excellent condition
- Copal 0 lens board
- weighted dark cloth, black on both sides
- 2x FLM 70mm quick-release plates, if desired
- Peak 5x loupe


I'll throw in some film as well if you want.


$1900 USD includes shipping to Canada/USA, and includes Paypal fees.


Thanks

OK, I lied; $1750

The GG hood is not standard equipment on this camera, even if you shell out $5K for a new camera, and this hood is almost new.

Bag bellows have been used a handful of times, and recent service to the camera gave it 10/10.

Camera is packed away, ready to ship.

I love this camera's superb engineering, on top of the Linhof quality. Very nice. Good luck with the sale!

Welcome back Ari. We missed you.

This is a wonderful camera. I had the predecessor, a TK45 for several years and sold it to Ari. Then he upgraded to this. He is a good person to do business with. A rare person. He actually does what he says he will do. Things are as he says they are.

This is a wonderful teaching camera. The TK45 was my first 4x5 after using a school Calumet monster for a couple of months. By teaching, I mean it is so intuitively well designed that you can start using it with just a little knowledge and it will teach as you go. I loved it until my eyes began to go. Then I moved up to a format I could still see.

Yes, that was me! On rue de l'Esplanade.
There was a small Durst enlarger as well, if I recall, and you mentioned something about astrophotography?
All the darkroom stuff is gone, except the Jobo tanks; replaced by a scanner and printer now.
But I kept up with the cameras, and now shoot 95% of my work on 8x10.
Small world on this internets thingy.

Right, print flashing.
Well, I'm in Montreal often enough; I should be going in the fall to do some FLM promo at LL Lozeau, and I'd be happy to meet up.

Back to the business at hand...anybody want a Linhof? Nice camera, I'm the second owner, looking for a third owner.
