For Sale FS: Yashica Mat 124G, Fuji GSW III, Zeiss Ikonta 6x9

[andreios]

Hello All,
once more I came to realize that I have too many cameras laying around and I need to de-clutter a bit.

I am starting here with the Yashica Mat 124G - it is in fine shape, both optically and mechanically - it has been recently CLAd - it had an issue with irregular frame spacing which is now solved. Optics are clean, shutter works nicely... There is the original lens cap and carrying case.

Price: 160€ + shipping (or a reasonable offer).

I'd also like to offer a FUJI GSW 680 III - the big Fuji rangefinder with wide 65mm lens and taking nine frames of 6x8cm negatives. It is a fantastic camera, but for my travel I need to get either something more compact or something more versatile for similar "bulk".

The camera is in good cosmetic and very good technical / optical condition. Everything works as it should, optics are clean, shutter is OK, etc.
There are scuffs around the bottom edges of the camera body and around the edge of the lens shade. One of the plastic "thingies" on the aperture ring is missing but the remaining screw does the job just fine. Lens cap is included but I'm keeping the strap you see in the pictures.

Price: €500,- + shipping (or reasonable offer)



The last camera is a beautiful Zeiss Mess-(?) Ikonta 524 - a classic 6x9 folder with an 105mm f3.5 Novar Anastigmat in very nice shape with uncouples rangefinder, clean glass, intact bellows... Shutter is working fine as well. Included is the original leather case.

Is the meter on the Yashicamat working?

 

[andreios]

It is alive, I have recently installed a new hearing aid battery and I'd say it's quite accurate for normal use, but I've always used hand held meter out of habit,especially for difficult lightning situations.

andreios,
about how much is it to ship to US, off of the top of your head... please don't trouble yourself if you don't know. I'm just wondering.

...user question. Viewfinder in your Fuji 680 looks very nice. Clean , uncluttered etc. But RF patch seems to be quite tiny. Is it so small in reality ?

Registered and insured parcels to US cost under/around 20USD economy (sometimes slow) and around 30USD pirority shipping. Sadly no (online) tracking available.

It may seem small within the relatively big viewfinder but I'd say its big enough to allow easy and reliable focusing - I would rate it the same (or maybe even slightly better) than on the Leica M2 that I once used. I'm not overfond of rangefinders but I never had any trouble focusing reliably with this one.

 

[kubakoziol]

...valuable opinion , thanks and good luck!

 

[andreios]

Yashica is SOLD now. Any offers for the Fuji or the Zeiss Ikonta?

 

[mesantacruz]

Wow, someone got a deal here... I would have jumped on the yashica especially with such a great price on after cla and shipping!

 

[andreios]

What about 450€ for the Fuji and 140€ for the Zeiss Ikonta delivered within EU? Split postage elsewhere.
