Hey guys,
I literally just picked this up, but I don't need it as I'm receiving an R2 (It was at my local shop and it had a lens that I was looking for and they wouldn't separate)
Cosmetically it's in very good shape. There are a couple small scuffs on the corners and signs of use throughout, but as far as I can tell it is working properly. I popped some batteries in and the meter starts right up, but seeing as how this is a purely mechanical camera, no batteries are required to use it. The rear film door covering is slightly tacky to the touch, but I sincerely doubt this would impact camera performance in any way.
The framelines appear accurate as far as I can tell and focusing worked just fine using a 50mm lens.
The film chamber also looks very clean.
Overall I think this would be a great user camera for anyone using LTM lenses.
Included would be the Bessa-R body and either a stock Voigtlander strap or a Padded Tamrac strap (or both if you really want). I do not presently have a body cap, or a spare set of batteries unfortunately.
I would like to ask $200obo for the camera and that would be including shipping costs to anywhere in the CONUS. If you are going to use Paypal I would ask that you contribute an additional 3% cost to help cover the fees.
