I'm selling a Pentax 6x7 (MLU) plus lens and a few other bits.

Included is:

  • Pentax 6x7 MLU body (including non-metering finder), plus body cap
  • Pentax Super-Multi-Coated Takumar 6x7 1:3.5/55 lens, plus both lens caps
  • Yellow filter (bayonet mount) to suit this lens
  • Skylight filter (bayonet mount) to suit this lens (not pictured, oops!)
  • Wooden handle
  • Lowepro "Pro 35" bag
I've had this camera for a couple of years and have got good use out of it. I've recently upgraded to a P67ii hence I'm selling this camera. I'd describe this camera as a good user system; it works as it should but could do with a service some time. (Mainly to properly clean the focus screen and mirror and to replace the seals.) The finder is fairly dim, but even so I've successfully used this in a studio.

Numerous minor scuffs and small marks, but nothing fatal. The glass on the lens appears good (even with the odd "gold" tint that these always seem to have).

This camera with this lens and with the wooden handle is a big heavy rig. If you don't want to take photos with it you could always use it to hammer in nails or to demolish buildings.

There is a bag included but it's a bit old and tatty, I'm only including it to help protect the system in transit.

I'm asking $425 plus postage. Inspection is welcome, I'm in Adelaide's northern suburbs. Local pick up and cash payment is ideal, otherwise we can work out some other options. More photos available if needed.

This is a good deal. I would snap it up except I already have something similar.

Willing to sell the grip separately? Do let me know.

Sorry, no. Splitting it would make the package a bit harder to sell.

Also, I've had a few people asking about shipping weight; as soon as I can get my hands on a working set of scales I'll reply.

How much to post to Sydney? I've been after one of these for a while.

Have mirror lockup? Got any other lenses?

Have mirror lockup?

Yes.

Got any other lenses?

Yes, but none for sale, I'm keeping my other lenses for my P67ii. I've currently got 2 55mm lenses which is why I'm selling one with this body.

Also, I've got a Komura Telemore 95, which appears to be a teleconverter. I'll throw this in as well, as long as the potential buyer is happy with making the package somewhat heavier. I've never used the Telemore as I don't need a teleconverter for my typical shooting. It appears to be in good condition with two lens caps. The glass is good but with quite faint (negligible?) marks. I'd imagine that a teleconverter is pretty much pointless with a 55mm lens however...
