Accepting trades?

No, I'm trying to pare down my cameras. This is truly a gem. I shoot with it regularly and it is great shape as a collector piece as well.

I have a great condition MXEVS Rolleiflex I'm trying to upgrade from. Would you trade if I added some money on top of the trade possibly?

 

[mitrajoon]

Thanks but I'm really trying to sell one of my two Rollies (I have a 2.8F also listed). My plan is to keep the one that doesn't sell. So adding another camera isn't in the cards. Next up is one of two Polaroid SLRs and then one of two Hassies.

Don't suppose you have any a12 backs you'd be willing to trade for an excellent condition a24 one?

 

[mitrajoon]

I actually have 6 A12s and 2 E24s. I would trade for an E12. Eventually I'll sell one of my Hassies and some of these will go. I have to say though, it's hard to give them up. FWIW, I've used the 220 backs with 120 film and they do work just fine.

 

[ohnewton35]

I had alot of trouble doing so. What is the difference between the e12 and a12?

 

[mitrajoon]

The E12s are designed to work with the 200 series Hasselblads (I have a 203FE). They are wired so that the camera's built in meter reads the film ISO from the magazine. It's not a big deal because with the A backs you set the ISO in the camera and the E magazines you set it on the magazine.

Here's a link that might help you use the A24 with your 120 film:

Good luck.
