Up for sale (SOLD) is my Hassy kit - A recently CLA’d 500C body from the last batch produced, when the 500C were really “c/m” but they still had nameplates to use up. That means you can change the focusing screen yourself, very easily. The camera is in excellent cosmetic shape, and excellent +++ mechanical shape. Winding is smooth (I’ve replaced the standard knob with a period correct “rapid” winding crank - the original is also included), barn-doors work correctly. Viewfinder/screen is clean and accurate for focusing. Waist-level finder works properly and the magnifier is intact and clear. No major dings anywhere.
There are 2 A12ii backs, both refurbished with new seals, both with matching inserts, and dark slides. I have added dark slide holders to each; very convenient, and no more lost or bent slides.
Also included is a 90 degree prism finder (meter less), which is in less fine outside cosmetic condition, but the prisms and glass are clean and clear.
(The Distagon 60mm/3.5 CB lens has sold.)
SOLD Price for the Body, 2 backs, prism, strap, added accessories is $1100, which includes USA domestic shipping and insurance. No boxes, sorry.
Also available is a very nice, near mint Distagon 40mm CF FLE lens. Very very very sharp, great contrast, not too big, and with the nifty floating element system which allows very sharp photos up close (a problem with the older, heavier version). The Glass is pristine, the shutter accurate, blades clean, Focus is smooth - no issues. After owning a SWC, I came to prefer this lens, as I could use it on my existing body and see exactly what I am getting in the viewfinder. Included is the hood and very hard to find UV filter. Plus front and rear caps.
SOLD Price for the 40 Distagon is $1275 all-in, and includes USA domestic shipping and insurance. No box.
