Continuing to thin the herd so my heirs don't hate me. This is a really nice little Yashica TLR, a simplified version of the 44 that uses knob-wind and the little red window instead of a crank with auto-stop. The shutter has no slow speeds to gum up -- you never use those anyway, right?
The mechanics are smooth, the shutter is crisp, the lens is clear and clean, no fungus or fog. The body has no dents, no wear, pretty much how it left the factory. The case is solid and I like that the front snaps onto the body of the case -- This means there's no hinge to wear out and tear and you can remove the front of the case entirely to shoot. Why didn't Rollei do that?
I was going to shoot a roll of film so you can see how well it performs, but decided all that does is show what an amazing photographer I am (REALLY!!! I'm AMAZING!!!). So instead, I'll give you the roll of Rerapan 100 and you can shoot it yourself!
So $100 for the camera which includes shipping anywhere in the United States, plus the film. Priority delivery will be by a licensed and insured uniformed representative of the government of the United States of America.
My paypal is best. Let me know. First come first served, as always, and if you live in or near Ogden, Utah, you can pick it up in person and I'll buy you a beer down on Two-Bit Street to celebrate your new acquisition.
Questions?
Thanks for looking.
