Hey all,

This kit isn't getting much use these days. The Hasselblad gets used 95% of the time, and even when I shoot with this camera, I find myself cropping to a square format anyhow! Besides, if I want to shoot rectangles, I can go to 4x5 or 8x10 .

I've taken lots of photos of the various bits n' bobs included with this kit, please see all of them here:

http://s788.photobucket.com/albums/yy161/mr_danielstone/Pentax 67II Kit for sale/

Here is what is included(with a short description of each item as well):

1. Pentax 67II Body
Works perfectly, and short of a few bumps(see the one "major" one(tiny) on the prism. Prism is non-metered. I liked it that way since I usually shot with the camera on a tripod, and used my spot meter to determine proper exposure anyhow. Mirror up function and double-exposure work flawlessly. According to my last roll of E-6 film I shot with the camera, my exposures(determined by a 100% accurate(wish my brain was that good ) Pentax spot meter) looked wonderful, and just as I wanted them to be. There is no bodycap, as I left the 90mm lens on the body 100% of the time unless another lens was being used. Spacing between negatives is even and consistent, and the film transport mechanism is smooth and almost effortless! All electronics work perfectly on the screen on the top, and the counter works perfectly.

2. 90mm 2.8 Lens(non leaf shutter)
Glass looks almost mint. When I say "almost", I mean I can't see any dust specks. However, there are a few TINY rub marks here and there on the barrel. Aperture blades are clean, dry and oil free, and the aperture is very "snappy" and does not stick at all. Lens has a FRONT cap ONLY(again, since I left it on the body(above) all the time unless I was using the 135mm lens(below), and then I put the rear body cap from that lens on to protect it.

3. 135mm Macro lens
Again, glass looks "vunderbar"(wonderful), and this lens is SHHHHHAAAARRRRPPPP!!!! Can't say enough about it, macro function(almost 1:1), great for close-ups of wildflowers and the like. Or use it(as I did a lot of the time) for a mild telephoto lens. I was going to purchase the 200mm lens to use for this purpose(for a bit more reach in the field), but since I already have a Hasselblad kit, I'm covered in that regard. Has both front and rear caps(rear cap I swapped between lenses when changing them).

4. Case
This was an insert from a Tenba view camera case that I had. It works great for keeping the camera and two lenses(90mm attached to body during transport), plus a pro-pack(5 rolls) of 120/220 film and my Sekonic ambient meter inside nicely. Has a divider to keep the body/90mm and the 135mm lens(in lenswrap, which is included in this sale btw) separate to minimize rubbing or vibration. Zipper works perfectly, and doesn't really even look like a camera bag(more like a lunch bag cooler IMO).

So, pricing. There seems to be a big fluctuation between prices the last 6mo or so on the 'bay, so I'll stick this up in the middle(IMO).

My price is $1400 shipped in the USA for the entire kit.
Int'l(even Canada) shipping will be another $50 via Express Mail int'l w/ full insurance.

If you pay via Paypal "gift" or use a USPS Money Order(or MoneyGram), I'll toss in a few rolls of 400NC 120! This film offer is only for paypal "gift" or money order users.
If "gifting" isn't your thing, I ask that you please cover the Paypal fees($45).

thanks!

-Dan

RZ:
had one, sold it. Great cameras! I'm done changing formats. My Hassy works for me, just need to get a deal on a 250mm Superachromat . My vision sometimes needs a little more "reach" than my 150mm CF provides in the field.

thanks for the offer though
