Pentax 6x7 with 150/2.8 and 55/3.5 - $380 but Im open to offers
Taken from the Mayo Clinic Website:
The possibilities of Pentax 6x7 therapy are enticing increase your muscle mass, sharpen your memory and concentration, boost your libido, and improve your energy level. As you get older, Pentax 6x7 therapy may sound like the ultimate anti-aging formula. Well actually theyre talking about Testosterone therapy but this thing will do the same thing for you. When you see the size (pictures dont do it justice) and hear the bang (I said bang not click) of tripping the shutter youll release this is pure manliness (Or womanliness if youre not a man! I dont discriminate.)
This one is however in need of some love. Well start with the not so good. Its well used and shows it. Theres a small ding on the prism. When you look through the viewfinder you see a black dot which appears to be in the prism. Maybe its from the ding, Im not sure. It shows quite a bit of brassing, theres some leatherette missing, the strap lugs are missing (Im sure they Mayo clinic would recommend you dont hang something this size around your neck though). Also the light seals look like they might need a checkup. Finally I dont know if the shutter speeds are correct. Fast speeds seem on, slow speeds Im not sure on. Bulb doesnt stay open until you release the shutter and mirror is slow to come back down sometimes. Not film tested
Now for the good! It shoots 6x7 negatives with a SLR form factor. No silly waist level viewfinders, just straight TTL prism! Focus screen is clean! You get the meterless prism! (Much rarer and more expensive in cameras like the Nikon F/F2 so its got to be good right!) Honestly you get an enormous uncluttered viewfinder that puts every 35mm SLR to shame. This is 70s Pentax build quality so you can bang in nails and use the camera to stop a bullet and then keep on shooting.
Lenses 150/2.8 shows a big dent on the filter ring. Exterior shows a lot of brassing. However, glass looks clean and clear. Aperture is smooth and snappy, apertures blades look clean and oil free and focus is smooth.
55/3.5 This thing is nice. Exterior shows quite a bit of brassing. Optics look really good. No marks or anything. Focus is smooth, aperture is snappy and the aperture blades look clean and oil free. Classic Pentax build quality which is generally amazing. Oh and did I mention its big Filter size is 100mm.
Rollei Tropical Case (Hardcase) with desiccant $225 - Good condition. The case shows minor paint loss where it opens and closes. Nothing I would consider serious (but thats for you to decide). You can get a sense of it from the pictures. The inside is clean but there is one spot on the back of the Rollei logo where one of bumper pads came off. I have the pad so you just have to stick it back on. I also have another pad that seems to not have been installed yet. Also comes with desiccant cartridge which is pretty neat. It consists of a glass tube full of purple crystals which I assume were the original silica gel. These seem to be a little hard to find in good condition with everything like desiccant included so Im not sure about price. If youre interested PM me and well work something out.
Really Right Stuff BH-40 with AS II LR - $340 - Its been used almost entirely inside. Only place that shows noticeable wear is the bottom (mount) which is because it was mounted on a tripod. If you closely Im sure you can find small scratches and stuff. Comes with RRS condura pouch. Only selling because I have a BH-55 on the way (I wont sell it until my BH-55 arrives but that should be either today or tomorrow).
Super-Tak 1:3.5 35mm Hood $5 + shipping shows wear but it works.
Pentax Strap - $5 + shipping I think its a strap at least. Still in unopened bag.
