It is hard (for me) to read the nomenclature...is that a T-80.?
I am fairly new to all this, but I do not remember too much discussion regarding this model.

Canon's first autofocus SLR, I believe.

Just picked up another of these very rare cameras; made back in 1982 it's reckoned that under 800 were manufactured before Yashica pulled the plug on this and the Contax 137AF. Both cameras were shown to journalists at Photokina 1982 but only the Yashica made it into partial production.

Yest that is correct, it's a 1985 T-80, a forgotten camera...with some reasons as it's quite limited in its functions and its system consists of just three lenses.

Canon's first autofocus SLR, I believe.

Correct, I think already made an AF lens for the F-1N but this was the first with AF confirmation in the camera itself. Probably it would have more successfull if it had more standard Av e Tv modes besides the five programs that were thought for beginners.

Added another Retina IIa even though I already have one. This one was on sale for a good price for quite some time but nobody bought it:

A birthday gift from a very thoughtful and generous fellow vintage camera enthusiast. Rolleiflex Old Standard type 622. Aside from a stuck shutter, and a little verdigris on the brass bits, she is in very good condition, as is the case. Also included the original lens cap.

A case filled with:
- 2 Mamiya RB67 Pro S bodies
- 3 film backs (120/220)
- Sekor C 50mm lens 1:4.5
- Sekor C 127 mm lens 1:3.8
- Sekor C 250 mm lens 1: 4.5
- 2 polaroid backs
- Prisma AE Finder
- Hand Grip and belt
- all the lens hoods and caps.
- several filters: Pallas UV Filter maat 77mm, Cokin P.046, B+W Polarising filter 81 B, 2 x High Tech 100 Filter system, 3x Kodak Gelatine filters.
- Bellows for macro.
- Mamiya extension ring No 1 45mm Sekor-C RB67 6X7 pro
- tripid clamp
- original metal case.

I think I'll split it in two sets (and test everything), keep one myself and will find a good home for the other set.

Ouch! Looks heavy!
Yes, but compensated by carrying a now emptied wallet at the same time :smile:

I was also given a plastic back with 20 (or so) expired films to test the cameras with.

Bert:

It looks to me like one of those bodies is an RB67 - Pro, while the other is a Pro-S.

You're right, and it came with two Pro-s backs and one Pro back. Do you know if there's much difference between these two bodies?

The most important differences relate to the interlocks. Double exposure prevention in particular.

The horizontal/vertical indicators in the viewfinder in the Pro-S are really nice as well.

Otherwise, the Pro body has relatively little market value, but will certainly serve as an able emergency backup.

MD-1 motor drive and MB-1 battery pack with analog voltmeter.

The F2S I've had for about 10 years and the somewhat rare 28-45mm AI Nikkor I've had for about five years.

C'est très sexy, non?

Definitely nice.

F2AS I've had for 5 years this August (Soverized at the beginning of 2014). 55/1.2 I've had since the end of last year, and the MD-2/MB-1 is a recent acquisition. Camera has worn a few of these over the past few years, though.

Keeping in mind i am but a beginner.....
1. That is a cool shot indeed.
2. Is that your F2, in front of a computer screen, with the lens reading reflections from (a red) traffic light outside, through a glass window.?

I was just gifted a Ricoh XR-P with a Rikenon 50mm f2. I threw some batteries in it and everything seems to work great, can't wait to put a roll of film through it.
