Okay, so I'm getting rid of the rest of my Mamiya RB67 gear because it isn't getting used as much as it should. Everything is in good to great condition, and although I would like to sell everything together as part of one outfit, I'm willing to part stuff out (so long as the body and at least one lens have sold).
Here's what I've got: RB67 Pro-S body in great working condition and OK cosmetic condition; at some point, one of the vinyl pieces covering the body came off and it was not reattached very well, but this doesn't affect the operation of the camera. Comes with a 120 6x7 film back in good working condition (if you shoot super-high speed film like Ilford 3200, you will want to replace the seals in the back; they are fine with slower films).
I have several lenses. The 90mm C lens is in good condition, doesn't have any scratches, fungus, etc -- BUT it does have a rainbow on the back element that could be a coating issue but is more likely some separation between the elements. There is also some paint loss around the rim of the filter thread, where someone fixed a dent with a pair of pliers, but the filter threads are fine and the lens will accept 77mm filters without any problem. The 180mm lens isn't a C lens, but it is plenty sharp and is in very good condition; no scratches on the elements, etc -- looks great.
I also have a 360mm telephoto lens with the original lens hood that I had listed here earlier -- if you want to buy that lens as part of this package, I can include it for $175 (pics available in subsequent post).
As for the accessories: I have MANY, as stated in the title. The CdS Prism Finder that's included has a working light meter that used silver oxide batteries; it is about a stop and a half to two stops off, but this is easy to correct by dialing down the film speed on the side of the finder. The finder also comes with the original black velvet lined case, which is in excellent condition.
I have BOTH extension tubes (for macros and close-ups), with caps. Like new.
I have two grips: a pistol grip with that hard to find base plate, and a left handed grip with a cold shoe on the handle. Both have working remote release triggers.
I have a Polaroid back with the requisite P adapter (which you have to have to attach it to the RB) -- and although it hasn't been used in quite a while, it still has some Polaroid film in it, which might be fun for some transfers.
I also have a Mamiya aluminum case with foam cut for this camera and most of the accessories (I'm not sure that the finder will fit, but I can check that out).
I'll take $420 for the RB67 Pro-S body, back, 90mm C lens, 180mm lens, CdS prism finder, Polaroid back, grips, extension tubes, and the case. I am in the US, and I would prefer to keep the kit in the US just because the international shipping costs will be high (and it might have to be shipped in two boxes to go overseas). Add the 360mm lens (and native hood) for $175, or take everything the camera and accessories and the 180mm (without the 90mm) for $360.
PM me with questions if you have them --
