I am not the seller and don't know them but this seems like a good price onb a user m8.2

Says it belonged to Nicholas Nixon http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nicholas_Nixon
and has the 75 framelines blacked out. That would make it quite the machine for a 50 (paired with a 28...).

I do however love using the M8 with a 28/75 combo!

I don't see how this is a "sweet" deal seeing as how it's only a little under 'usual' price and has been buggered about with to remove framelines eqiv. to 90mm...a key focal length

"Q: Also, do you know how many actuations the camera has?
A: Hi, This camera includes power adapter with charger, usb cable, 4gb card, and camera strap."

Good answer!

Seems odd that there are under 1000 actuations on the camera and its brassing significantly on the bottom place. What's up with that?

 

[Alnitak]

There's a lot of brassing on the top and the bottom for only 585 actuations as claimed. I am skeptical....

Sombody love the patina used sand paper, I guess?
Or the seller calculated it in wrong way.
