Hi,

Yashica mat 124G
Very nice. Only very small user marks.
Light meter works and is accurate enough for negative film.
Film advance is oke.
Takes both 120 and 220 film.
Lens is flawless.
Tessar type coated Yashinon lens.
Light seal in the hood has been replaced.
Comes with every ready case, original plastic lens cap and original hood
in a leather case.
I've used it myself until recently and the slides are oke. Look here:

shutter must be accurate.
Like to have EUR200,- plus shipping
Pics on request.

I have a chrome Contax T for sale.
I used the camera for a few rolls of slides and can only report that it
works great. The glass is perfect and the body has only a few small
marks of carefull use. The viewfinder has collected some dust but is
still very clear and one of the best viefinders i've ever seen.
This camera has a sharp CZ sonnar 38/2.8. Aperture prefered automatic
exposure. The lens folds in and then the camera is about the size of
package of cigarettes. It features a real rangefinder.
Looking for $400 plus shipping
I also have the dedicated flash but this is black instead of chrome.
Still works of course $50,-
Pics on request.

Cheers,

Michiel Fokkema
