If you don't feel like shelling out for a Rolleiflex with a meter, this Mat 124G is what you want. It is in very good condition and appears fully functional. Shutter fires on all speeds, sounds good. Wind on is smooth. Meter is working and accurate. Focus is smooth and even. Glass is clean and clear, no fungus, no haze. There are a couple of very small coating marks towards the edge of the taking lens (only visible under careful inspection), nothing that will impact performance. Ground glass is clean. Viewing hood flips up and down neatly, magnifying loupe works. There is old corrosion in the battery compartment, but the battery still makes good contact. Self timer works. Cosmetic condition is good, with minor wear. Includes: genuine Yashica bayonet hood and push-on lens cover.   -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- About Camera Sanctuary: Like you, I love cameras.

This classic Mamiya interchangeable lens TLR looks very well-used, but it appears to be fully functional and is sold as working. Here is what I can tell you: - The shutter in the 80 mm lens fires on all speeds, sounds good. - Glass is in acceptable condition, with cleaning marks and micro-scratches that should not impact real-world performance. No haze, no fungus. - Focus gearing is smooth. - Bellows look OK. - The chimney viewfinder is damaged at one corner (see photos) but still attaches securely to the body. When flipping from 6x to 3.5x, the magnifier sometimes sticks and blocks the top 5% of the view -- jiggling the knob will allow it to settle back completely. This magnifying finder definitely makes it easier to achieve critical focus.  - Cosmetic condition is acceptable, with significant generalized wear.   -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- About Camera Sanctuary: Like you, I love cameras.

Here we have a beautiful MD-2 motor drive for the F2 (with the battery check gauge rather than the light), along with the MB-1 battery pack. Unfortunately, I do not have the two MS-1 battery caddies that go in the MB-1, so you will need to provide those to actually use the motor drive.  This is sold as working even though I cannot test it.  Be sure to check out my other sales.

This cute little camera is untested because there's no charger for it -- you can find one on easily, or maybe you have a compatible one lying about. It does include a genuine Panasonic battery (DMW-BCE10E), as well as a nifty Panasonic-branded leather belt case with a magnetic clasp. Be sure to check out my other sales.

Here we have Hasselblad's iconic camera with its standard 80mm Planar from Zeiss, in good user condition with two small issues of note. - Catch for the waist level finder is tricky, sometimes magnifier deploys on first press (rather than second as it should) and causes the flaps to bind when they flip up.  - Lens has a fungus spot (visible in last photo). It should not impact performance.  Otherwise, everything is good. - Wind-on is smooth. - Shutter fires on all speeds. Shutter blades are clean. - Focus is smooth. - Aperture ring clicks nicely at each stop. - No marks on front or rear lens coatings. Just the mentioned fungus and the usual dust.  - Good cosmetic condition overall. * A note about fungus in lenses: I am as clear as possible about how badly affected a lens is by fungus. I have a 30-day return policy and returns cost me money, so the last thing I want is for you to be unpleasantly surprised. If I say the amount of fungus in a lens should not impact performance, I mean it. If it looks like a mushroom farm in there, I'll tell you in the description. * -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- About Camera Sanctuary: Like you, I love cameras.

This is a nice example of version of the B8 with a variable shutter (the B-8VS). The camera appears to work: motor runs properly at different speeds, viewfinder is reasonably clear, viewfinder frame size changing works. Lens are clean and clear, apertures click precisely. Turret switches nearly. Focus on the 12.5 mm is smooth, but the grease seems to have hardened in the 35 mm lens -- I can't turn it away from infinity. Both lens caps included, along with hood for 35 mm.  Be sure to check out my other sales.

This Sinar lens board takes lens has a 41.5 mm hole, which should be a Copa / Compur number 1 shutter.

This simple viewfinder camera seems to work fine apart from the slowest shutter speeds: 1/5 sec and below sound too slow, but 1/10 and up sound fine.

A fun retro shooter, but not really in collectible condition unless you're into restoring inexpensive cameras. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- About Camera Sanctuary: Like you, I love cameras.
