Trying to clear out stuff.
Prices are plus shipping. I'll ship anywhere.
1) SOLD Yashica Mat 124 (Not the 124G) with case & strap. Price $80 Camera is mint cosmetically, and everything works (great shutter speeds, smooth film advance, etc.,) but it does have 2 issues. First, meter is not working, or all my batteries are dead. As these meters are notorious for being inaccurate, I never felt it mattered, always used a handheld. Second, the WLF is being held on by one screw. The other 3 screws are missing their heads, and have no idea how to get them out. Case is good, but one side's stitching came out (literally it happened just now), and I don't have black thread to repair it. It is not torn up, just the stitching came loose.
Shutter speeds are great, film advance is smooth, aperture is fine, mirror is clean, and the WLF has the full grid ground glass.
Optics have no fungud haze or scatches, but there is a small fiber inside the taking lens that hasn't has an effect on images.
2) SOLD Yashica Lynx-14 #1. $80 - Works great. Meter is working, but I can't guarantee it's accuracy. Shutter speeds all sound good, blades are clean. Glass is very clean, no fungus, haze, scratches, etc. Viewfinder is clean and bright, and the RF patch is nice and clear.
3) Yashica Lynx-14 #2. $75 - Same as above, but has two tiny dings in the top cover.
No real difference in the 2 Lynx's. Both are clean and fully operational. I bought these as car cameras, but the way I pack the camera causes the meter to be turned on, so batteries were dying very quickly with the meter always on. So these aren't fitting my needs, and I have no other need for them. Currently, I'm trying an Oly 35SP as my car camera. So far so good.
Pics to come. My DSLR battery is charging ATM.
