Got this guy at an estate sale a few years back, now I'm trying to fund an A7.
The camera folds and unfolds nicely, the bellows are good and light tight. The shutter works well at all speeds and the aperture blades move nicely. Its got a nice f/2.8 tessar for that sweet bokeh action. Who needs a 2.8 rollei when you've got one of these? The VF/RF are both clear, though a little bit on the small side. Shooting this camera reminded me a little of shooting a blown up Barnack Leica. One finder for framing, one for focusing. It works nicely once you get into the swing of it.
On the top there's a spot that looks like it had tape on it, maybe with some contact info? the spot was there when I bought it, its visible in the pictures. Looks to have a few 'zeiss' bumps on the back. Nothing that would inhibit the function of this camera. The chrome looks good, but there are a few dings in the leather here and there. This is a user's camera, shouldn't be afraid to throw it in the bag and hit the town.
Can I get $120 for this guy? Included, free of charge, is 9 or 10 shots of portra from a roll I never finished. Preloaded for your convenience.
