[Martin Howard <mvhoward@mac.com>]

Too much gear, not enough photographs.  So, I'm offering the following 
for sale:

Leica R6, black, s/n 1747xxx.  EX: only flaws are small marks below 
camera mount, tiny marks on reflex housing, beginning of brassing 
around corners. Mechanically and optically perfect. All-matte 
groundglass. Comes with Leica strap & body cap.  $690.

Telyt-V 200mm f/4 black & chrome, s/n 1851xxx EX: very slight marks 
along focussing ring.  Glass flawless, mechanically superb.  Comes with 
LN black, purple velvet-lined (I shit you not!) metal front cap. $350 
(and save $100 over eBay ;)

16466M OUBIO, a bit worn cosmetically (BGN) but fully functional. $45.

14167 Visoflex-to-R adator for three-cam lenses, LN-/EX+. $250 new from

Two Leica Motor-Drive-R battery packs (AA batteries not included!).  
LN-/EX+ condition.  Cost $75 new, get mine for $30 each or $50 for both.

Lens shade for 60mm f/2.8 Macro-Elmar-R (old style) or 35mm f/4 
PC-Curtagon, BGN, $40.

Grading according to KEH scale (http://keh.com/faq/faq_grading.cfm) and 
conservative estimates (i.e., when in doubt, I've gone one lower).

Shipping (certified, insured, lower 48) is $8 for small items and $12 
for large items and cumulative.  Elsewhere at cost.

Five day money back guarantee (minus shipping costs) except where 
noted, provided items are in exactly the same condition as when you 
received them and packaged and shipped as well as I do (double-boxed, 
insured).  No questions asked, but please know what you are buying.


I'm open to suggestions for full or partial trades for things which I'm 
interested in.  Currently looking for a 50mm f/2.0 Summicron-M model 
no. 11817 or 11819 (1969-1994), black, preferably with 12538 hood.  
Must have perfect glass and mechanics.  Must come with 5 day MBG 
because I need to make damn sure that this thing fits on and works with 
a Bessa T.
