Here I'm selling my Sinar F2 camera plus accesories.
The Good news first: Everything works (minus the bubble levels which have dried out). It's a very competent picture machine! swing, tilt, shift, and focus are all working very smoothly. Rise/fall is sometimes a little stiff (very common on Sinar F cameras), but it's never bothered me.
The bad news: The groundglass has some scratches (see the picuters) which has never bothered me but it should be mentioned. The plastic ring that the rail clamp attaches too has a crack in it. This is very normal for Sinar cameras and has no effect on the function of the camera, but it should be mentioned.
In the pictures the camera is shown with a normal bellows in very good condition. I'm sorry to say that it's not included in the sale (I need it for my Norma), but a light tight and great functioning back bellows plus an older normal bellows (with tons of pinholes, it's still great as a lens shade) is included. The good news is that normal pinhole free Sinar 4x5 bellows usually go for very cheap on ebay.
Included in this sale are:
Complete Sinar F2 camera with bag bellows and normal bellows (with pinholes).
a 45 cm rail.
an extra 30cm black rail.
A sinar norma auxillary standard.
a short metal rod to attach to the front of the camera (the pictures show a long rod, which isn't included but a short rod is)
a plastic clamp to attach to the metal rod and a normal bellows to create a lens shade
An original Sinar polarizer + filter holder with a 77mm screwmount attachment.
extra glass filters that I've never used and don't really know what's for (they look like some sort of softening filters)
A very worn and heavily scratched Sinar fresnel lens.
If you are willing to pay for the extra shipping I can also include an original Norma case that the camera fits nicely in.
Not included in the sale but shown in the pictures are:
Sinar normal bellows in good condition.
Chrome 30cm rail
Sinar 6x9 format viewer
Long metal rail to attach to front standard to make a Bellows lens shade.
Total Price. 400 euros plus shipping (shipping is 50 euros to the EU and 80 euros to The US)
