[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]All: I have come to the conclusion that I am thoroughly entrenched in digital, and realize that even though the R9 is the most delightful camera I've ever used, without a DMR to hang on the back of it, I will likely never use it again. The same can be said for a very nice SL, that I have. Visa and Mastercard can be accepted via PayPal but at a 4% premium - to cover PayPal's fees. ---- R9 - Black. Was brand new in January,2007. Includes, presentation box, outer (silver) box, instruction book, original Leica (never used) strap, six (Count 'em.... 6) CR-2 batteries (it uses 2). All functions work perfectly. Has had only 12 rolls of film through it! In very fine (but not perfect) shape. Can be seen at: http://www3.telus.net/~telyt/R9_FS.htm US$1650 including shipping & insurance, within North America. Elsewhere, shipping at cost. ---- Leicaflex SL (Chrome - s/n 13722**) body, in EX+ condition. No dings, no serious marks. All functions work well. Finder is bright and clear, with no visible "yellowing" of the prism. This body had a complete CLA in 2002 by Reinhold Mueller (Toronto) and was converted for use with Alkaline or Silver batteries at that time. Works, as new! Photos available at: http://www3.telus.net/~telyt/SL.htm US$309 + shipping & insurance at cost.
