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.

This Rolleiflex T is in very good condition and appears to be fully functional. Glass is clean and clear, with no haze, no fungus. There is a small scratch on the viewing lens but no marks that I can see on the taking lens. Shutter fires on all speeds, sounds good. Focus is smooth throughout the range. Viewing screen (split prism) is in good condition. Viewing hood pops up and folds down neatly as it should, magnifying loupe works. Back fits nicely, locks properly.  This is one of the later Ts, which supports shooting 16 6x4.5 cm frames on a roll of 120 film, as well as the more typical 6x6 12 exposure configuration. The mask for shooting 6x4.5 is included and installed in the camera -- be sure to pop it out if you want to shoot 6x6! Removing the mask automatically sets the frame counter to 12 mode. The sport finder mask for shooting reduced frames (actually 5.5x4) is also included, but not pictured. Be sure to check out my other sales.

This super-speed normal lens in Minolta's SR mount is perfect for adapting to mirrorless digital use. Glass is clean and clear: no fungus, no haze, no marks that I can see. Focus is smooth, aperture ring clicks precisely. The iris blades are clean but they are *not* snappy -- they are too slow to use on an SLR and will probably result in overexposure if you try. This is *not* a problem when using the lens on a digital camera with an adapter since the iris is pre-set to the taking aperture when taking a photo. The only other problem is a slight filter thread ding that might make it hard to use filters -- I don't have a 57mm filter to try, unfortunately. Cosmetic condition is very good, minimal wear. Includes genuine Minolta front and rear caps. Be sure to check out my other sales.

Here we have a very nice looking Contarex Electronic with a problem: the battery door seems to be stuck. At least I can't turn the release. Most likely, batteries were left in the camera and subsequently leaked and expanded, jamming the door, but I can't say for certain. Mechanically, the camera seems to work -- the shutter fires, though only at one speed since there's no electronic control. Curtains look fine. Viewfinder is clean and clear. Hopefully it can be restored to its working glory, but it looks beautiful as is. Be sure to check out my other sales.

This Rolleiflex is in rough shape. It is missing its arming lever, so I don't know if the shutter works. Side panel is not attached, as seen in photos. One back hinge is missing. Focus does not work. May have other problems I am not aware of. The only good news is that the lenses look like they're in good condition, no fungus or marks that I can see.  -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- About Camera Sanctuary: Like you, I love cameras.

This super-speed normal lens will mount on later FD cameras as well as the FL cameras it was made for, and of course your mirrorless camera of choice with an FD adapter. This example was improperly stored and has some fungus on internal elements, but apparently not enough to significantly impact performance, even when shooting into the light (see test shots, taken with a Sony A7). Apart from that, the lens is in very good condition: no scratches or marks on glass, clean and snappy iris blades, firm but smooth focus, precise clicks on aperture ring. Filter thread is good. Includes front and and rear caps.    Be sure to check out my other sales.

Here we have an example of one of Pentax's wonderfully-built Super Takumar portrait lenses. This one shows some cosmetic wear but glass and mechanics are in good condition. Glass is clean and clear (just the usual dust), no haze, no fungus. Focus and aperture ring have the superb feel typical of this generation of Super Takumar lenses. Iris blades are clean and snappy. Includes original front and rear caps, hood and case. Be sure to check out my other sales.

Here we have a beautiful example of Nikon's iconic fast fifty. This is the "S·C" version, which as far as I know was only made in the pre-Ai F mount. This lens does have an Ai mount, so it was presumably modified at some point: the conversion is expertly done, perhaps by Nikon itself (I think you could send in your pre-AI lenses for modification for a while). It will now work with modern Nikon SLRs and DSLRs.  Anyway, this lens is in excellent condition. Glass is clean and clear, no fungus, no haze. There is a tiny mark on the rear element (visible in the second photo) but otherwise the glass appears pristine and unmarked. Iris blades are clean and snappy. Aperture selector moves nicely, focus is even. Includes original front and rear caps (the classy old Nippon Kogaku type that feel like bakelite) and the lens's HS-1 hood.  Be sure to check out my other sales.

This Leicaflex SL's mirror is stuck in the up position. If you try to wind-on the shutter, the arming lever stops immediately, but pressing down on the shutter release suggests it's not armed.

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 superzoom camera basically works but the zoom control can be a little picky -- you might need to move it a couple of times before it makes a good connection.

Here we have an example of Pentax's fast portrait lens. This is from the generation of K-mount lenses that Pentax made before introducing the "M" K-mounts: build quality is a little higher than those later lenses. Unfortunately, this one has some fungus, mainly on on the edges of the inside of the front element. I suspect the performance impact would be subtle if any is visible, but I have not tested it. There is also a dent in the filter thread, so filters are not an option. Otherwise, things are good: focus is smooth across the range, aperture selector clicks nicely at each stop, iris blades are clean and snappy, cosmetic condition (apart from the ding) is very good.  Be sure to check out my other sales.

Here we have a Braun Nizo S55 Super 8 camera. The motor runs but there is no sign of the aperture metering display in the viewfinder, and pressing the battery check buttons does nothing. It's not clear if the camera is actually metering but the display is just dead, or if the whole metering system is malfunctioning. There's also some coating wear on the front element of the lens, but the internals look clean and clear (as does the viewfinder). Power zoom works. Lens cap included (but it fits loosely).  Be sure to check out my other sales.

I could count the number of lenses that I've come across in this striking color on one hand, even if I'd lost four fingers of that hand in a terrible woodworking accident. This handsome Danubia has some minor internal haze that would probably not impact performance, as well a lot of hairline scratching on the front element that definitely would not be a problem in real-world use. Focus is very smooth and even across the range, aperture ring clicks precisely at each stop, iris blades are clean and snappy. I can combine shipping to reduce your costs.

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.

This VSL 3-E seems to have some kind of electronics problem. The viewfinder display lights up "60" with the other speeds showing flashing dots, no matter what the settings. Shutter fires at specific speeds, but in A mode mirror locks up. Cosmetically, the camera is in like-new condition. It was acquired from the stock of a former camera store, and my guess is it was a return that failed shortly after the original owner bought it. Includes body cap, box (but only the bottom styrofoam insert). Be sure to check out my other sales.

OK, this is something special. It came in with a Minolta AF-S (also for sale separately). It appears to be a custom, one-of-a-kind leather case designed specifically for that camera. It appears to be made of something like ostrich leather, crazy as that sounds. The stitching is precise, and the inside has a soft lining. There is a cutout along the top rear edge that provides access to the AF-S's viewfinder and flash release. I am almost positive this is not a commercial product: there is no branding, and there is no tripod screw attachment in the bottom of the case, yet it precisely holds an AF-S (as seen in the pictures). If you love your AF-S, you won't find a more original case to protect it. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- About Camera Sanctuary: Like you, I love cameras.

You can buy from me secure in the following: - My descriptions are honest. Some cameras have been babied, and some have been brutalized. There’s room in the world for both, but I won't try to sell one as the other. - I won’t pretend I don’t know things.  - I’ll take back anything that doesn’t meet your expectations.

This is the most tactical-looking accessory to feature on the Camera Sanctuary so far. If you really want to "shoot" your SLX, this is what you need. In excellent condition, probably unused -- this was acquired from the stock of a former camera store. Includes the original box.  You probably don't want to put this in your carry-on luggage. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- About Camera Sanctuary: Like you, I love cameras.

This curiosity is a full medical Nikkor kit for extreme macro photography (up to 3X magnification). It includes: - the Medical Nikkor C 200 mm f/5.6 lens with integrated ring flash and modeling lights, including original front and rear caps, power plug cap - 6 Nikon accessory lenses for controlling magnification - Nikon LA-1 AC universal power unit to drive lens strobe and lights, including cable to connect to lens - PC sync cable - Nikon Safety Cover to put on the camera's hot shoe, preventing shock when using this setup - Medical Nikkor case (moderate wear) I hooked up the power supply (EU plug adapter included) and tested the strobe and pilot lights: everything works. Glass is clean and clear, no fungus, no haze, no marks. Accessory lenses are in very good condition. My guess is this thing saw saw relatively little service after its initial purchase.

This Praktica B-mount lens has some very mild internal haze, unlikely to impact performance much if at all. The front element shows some hairline coating scratches, again, nothing to worry about in terms of function. Focus is smooth, aperture selector clicks evenly, iris blades are clean and snappy. A very compact normal lens. Includes front cap. Be sure to check out my other sales.

This is a beautiful looking Rolleicord Va with a couple of minor problems. The bad news: - There's something visible in the taking lens with a flashlight test, probably a bit of old fungus. Likely not enough to impact real world performance, but I have to disclose it. - Shutter sticks below 1/30th sec.  The good news: - Lenses otherwise look very nice, no marks or scratches. - Shutter works fine at speeds faster than 1/15th sec. - Film transport works, feels good. - Film counter works and resets. - Aperture control works, lever feels good. - Shutter speed selector feels good.  - Ground glass is fairly clean. - Magnifying loupe works. - Back fits nicely. - Viewing hood opens and collapses neatly.

This metal mechanical viewfinder camera seems to be working, except that shutter speeds at 1/30 sec and slower tend to stick. Viewfinder is clean and clear, wind-on is smooth. A fun vintage shooter.
