Argus C3 Fans ?

murray...u may have to adjust the gearing of the lens....it is an interchangeable lens camera and there could be the chance that someone unscrewed the rangefinder gearing and didn't line it up correctly...instructions on how to adjust it are here:

The instructions say you can use the lens on an enlarger. Is it a M39 Leica thread mount?

I'd like to get my hands on an operable, well maintained C3. I won't use ebay and the local market in San Diego isn't too good for this camera.

Well, how much did you have in mind paying? I got a C3 used in 1983 for a particular project, for which the multiple exposure feature was necessary. And I don't recall having used it since that one roll 22 years ago, so I guess it's reasonable to make it available for sale!
