[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]For sale LEICA CAMERA BODY: Leitz Wetzlar Leica R4sP camera body, bought as store demo, has seen little use, Ex+++++ condition. $495 The R4sP is what should have been called the "R5s"--identical to the R5 except that it has aperture priority spot, aperture priority center-weighted, and manual modes only (no shutter-priority or program), and it lacks TTL flash metering. Same bright finder optics as the R5-R6-R7 series. It is identical to the R-E except for the lack of TTL flash metering. An excellent user body or intro to the Leica R system. Also for sale: Canon EOS Rebel G, latest, LIKE NEW in box with papers, IB, etc. $229 Canon EF 50mm f/2.5 MACRO lens, LIKE NEW in box with papers etc. $295 VIEW CAMERA: Crown Graphic with viewfinder removed--outstanding as a starter view camera "on the cheap." Crowns were very well made (in the USA) and run rings around other "starter view camera" options for quality. This one is in OUTSTANDING condition, very clean, no flaws to speak of, works beautifully; call it Ex+++ considering its age. With lensboard and folding metal groundglass hood, also the late-model built-in fresnel viewing screen. A great bargain for someone getting into large format for the first time. ONLY $350. VIEW CAMERA LENS: Vintage Kodak Commercial Ektar f/6.3 8.5-inch (approx 210mm) lens in Ilex shutter in very good condition. Glass, cosmetics very clean, shutter works fine. A fine and much-sought-after classic lens that will cover 5x7. With box. $449. I pay shipping, UNCONDITIONAL 10-day moneyback (but you pay return shipping).
