Brassed body in good working condition except for the button that's supposed to light up the viewfinder. I have never used the winder or flash shoe but they were traded to me as functioning. Film spacing is good and very consistent, no light leaks. Instruction manual included. I used AIS and AFD lenses on this in auto and manual and it works really well. Put 44 rolls of B&W film through it and perhaps ten of color negative; I used it for several years without any problems. The Optech strap is not pictured, nor are the flash shoe or winder. I got the strap because it's a heavy body but I don't care for it--a little stiff for folding up. Also will throw in a few silver oxide batteries. (One oddity is that the meter doesn't read correctly without film in the camera. This threw me for a while until I realized that off the film metering requires a film surface to give the correct reading. CORRECTION: It doesn't matter whether there is film in the camera. The camera must be advanced to 1 to read correctly, per the discussion below. I'm an old dog but I'm still learning. Thanks to Chan and Brian for their information.) Metering is heavily center weighed. I am selling it because I'm not shooting film anymore. This is probably the best film camera I've ever used in terms of straightforward operation, reliability, and ease of use. Payment is PayPal Goods and Services. Buyer pays shipping. 2 week inspection period from date of receipt. Full refund for return (if complete and in condition as sent), but buyer pays return postage.
SOLD
