For Sale WTB: Pentax 67 w or w/o 105mm and/or 165mm [Feelers]

[mweintraub]

I've been eyeing the P67 for some time now and decided that I think I'd shoot the P67 more instead of 35mm.

Depending on my finance manager (we all have those), I might be able to pay all in cash, or I have a Nikon F80s [exposure written between frames] for trade. Might add a Nikon F with standard prism into the mix, not sure though.

Oh you're thinking is right. A 6x7 image is 400% bigger than 35mm, and that equates to a superb image. Assuming you know how to get the very best out of the camera (technique) and lenses (e.g. later generation).

The 165mm comes in leaf shutter or plain and the LS version can be useful if you decide to venture down the path of portraiture with higher sync speeds. But all that comes after mastering the 67's idiosyncracies.

Asahi Pentax 6 X 7 MLU + 3 lenses in Finland

Hello!
I have too many 6x7 -cameras (never have the time to use them all), so I'm planning on keeping my RB and RZ-stuff, and selling off the rest. My Asahi Pentax 6x7 comes with 3 Super-Multi-Coated Takumars: 75, 105 and 135. All in very good shape. The problem here is the distance, Finland and Texas aren't exactly next door neighbours...

Saw one (though no MLU) on the LF forum recently.

Oh man, I hope it's not that hard to get the best from the P67! I have L/S lenses for the Mamiya 645 but haven't used it much. I would probably get the 2.8 first and the L/S later.

Ohhh, Not sure if shipping would be worth it or cheap enough for me, but I'd love to hear your prices. PM Me.

I couldn't find it. I'm not familiar with LFF's setup.

I have one of the first version Super Takumar 105mms and even wide open, optical quality is great. I have some slides from last year that are amazingly detailed.

I have a 67II and a few lenses listed in the classifieds if that helps.

That is a great looking camera, quality work. As a former cabinet builder I also like the finger joint work.
