My wife is wonderful but she firmly believes in the free flow of goods both in and out of the house. When a camera comes in, there has to be a corresponding outflow as well. So... 135/2.8R - second optical formulation, EX+ cosmetics with mint glass, comes with a B+W E54 to E55 adapter and an Elpro VIIa close-up lens, no caps. $200US 2x converter for SL/SL2 - EX++ with mint glass, yes they are rare but only works with stop down metering, comes with rear cap but no front (body) cap. $250US M4-2 - EX cosmetics just CLAed, yes this the camera that had me pulling my hair out! I paid $900US and then had to have it CLAed for another $450US! It has a new shutter curtain, new shutter roller, new wind gear, new flash syncs and new M4-P winder coupling, no F%£&*ng expense spared (sorry for the language). works as new but we just sit and glower at each other so one of us has to go. I will stand by the camera, if you have ANY problems I will take it back no questions asked. Please contact my wife for the price on me (cheap), the camera can be had for $700US Nikonos IVa with 35/2.5 - user cosmetics (one strap lug dinged) in mint operating condition (both just overhauled by Nikon with all internal o-rings and front lens port replaced) and mint- optics (minor dust), comes with front lens cap and strap. $150US If I am deliriously happy with the 0.58x camera (not here yet), I may be selling my new Leica 35mm viewfinder (MIB) $320US - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
