I have a nice Sears 50mm 1.7 lens for sale( PK mount). It comes with a basically free Chinon CG5 35mm body. The lens has no haze, fungus, dings or dents. Also appears to be dust free inside. It has been a very dependable lens for me. I feel it was probably made by Ricoh or Pentax, as it is rock solid like a Pentax 50mm 1.7. Comes w/ lens cap and Skylight filter.
The Chinon CG-5 was given to me by Jon Goodman in a large box of other goodies I purchased from him this last year. I would not feel right trying to sell the camera. I have used it on several occasions. The only problem it may present is the switch for the self timer is missing. I also have not figured out the depth of field button. (If that's even it). A manual can be had at Butkus.com. ASA settings go from 25 to 3200. Shutter speeds seem fine, with an auto mode also. Film counter works fine. There is a OFF position on the shutter speed dial, you should turn off when the camera is not in use- as it will drain the battery power.
The metering seems to work good, which is LED's in the view finder much like a ME Super. Camera takes Pentax PK and Ricoh lenses also.
I'm asking $30, includes shipping to US. Paypal or USPS MO is ok.
Thanks for looking,

I found out that this 50mm 1.7 lens is Ricoh made for Sears. It has all the quality of my Pentax 50mm 1.7. It also looks exactly like my Ricoh 50mm.
 
For what it is worth, I took some very nice pictures with this camera while I had it. I agree about the metering. Always seemed fine to me and is quite easy to use.

How about $20, it can't get any better than that!
 
I'll bite, how much would you do shipped to Canada? R3P 1J1?
