Thought I'd list this first since multiple people showed interest in it. This is the all black version of the Mamiya Universal. Of the four that I've owned this one is easily in the best condition. The lens is clear of any fungus or haze and the coatings seem like they've held up without any obvious markings. The iris functions properly with no oil on the aperture blades. The shutter is super snappy at all speeds and accurate to the ear. Shutter goes from B-1/500th and aperture from f/3.5-32. The shutter release on the grip works consistently. The rangefinder is bright and accurate with clear bright lines and no haze or fungus. The polaroid back is in good condition and functions as it should. The original manual is also included!

Overall this kit shows signs of light use consistent with it's age. The leatherette has become discolored in a few spots. The original dark slide went missing so I cut down and smoothed out the edges of another random dark slide to fit. These press camera's are built like a rock and are very heavy and durable.

This camera is perfect for someone wanting to shoot polaroid pack film with full manual control and wants something more customizable than a 180/195.

To sweeten the deal on this I'll include one fresh pack of FP-3000B from the LAST run with an expiration date of 12/2014 (cold stored since purchased). I'm looking to get $550 + S/H from Ohio. If that sounds steep, I'm always open to reasonable offers, so message me and make me an offer.
