Two Minolta Autocord twin lens reflex cameras for sale. Photos will go up later today or tomorrow.

Both are very similar. Earlier model, no meter or such. The Seikosha MX shutter, with ten aperture blades. Chiyoka Rokkor lens, clean.

Overhauled- shutters, wind mechanism, focus system. Focus is smooth and easy. Aperture and shutter levers move smoothly. Focus screens are clean and bright. New mirrors installed. Viewing lenses clean. Bodies are clean. New foam installed. Some paint loss on edges of back door, a few scuffs here and there, but basically looking nice. New Grip-Tac leatherette installed- a great handling material for TLRs.

If you would like a Mamiya screen installed instead of the stock Minolta screen, I can do that eaisly for $50, including focus adjustment, etc. Either the matte screen or the split image screen available.

$250 each
OBO. plus shipping- ~$15 in US.

Tapatalk allows access to many forums on smartphones, optimizes for small screens.

250 for one or both? Is that a dumb question?

Ah, so does it have a character limit? Seems pretty un-optimal if it just randomly edits things. If it does edit, does it give you (the user) an indicator that the article is truncated?

Anyway, in the original listing I had the word 'each' after the price of $250. Then I forgot it in the response to you. So yeah, $250 each.

As to the question being dumb, I think a better question is do things like tapatalk increase or decrease smooth effective communication? Am I over my character limit yet? Will you even see this? Do I need such anxiety? Do you need to question if you have a truncated message or not? Ah, life, the internet, it's all capable of being a mess whatever system we use, it seems....

Odd, in the qoute before posting i can see your price inside a for bold i guess but that does not show up in the quoted post. Tapatalk does not truncate as many posts are very long. It appears to have trouble with certain coding that the forum uses for text formatting.

Some photos of one of the cameras. The second camera is in similar condition-

I have two Autocords that Dan has CLA'd and sold to me. They are very fine cameras, especially at this fair price. Get 'em while you can. I have a Rolleiflex Tessar 75/3.5, but always reach for one of my Autocords. Great camera, great seller, free bump.

I use Tapatalk too and confirm it does not show the price in the first post. Tapatalk allows a "web view" which shows as if I'm using a web browser on a desktop computer and I see it then no problem. It's the bolding that does it.

Hmmm... well, good to know. I wonder if tapatalk is the problem or if the coding on this site is the problem. Either way I guess it's time to go to plain text everywhere!!

Now wouldn't it be great if emojis come through loud and clear no matter, eh? :cry:
