Uh, would I sound totally clueless if I said I have never heard of this one?
Not that I haven't, just a hypotherical question. 🙂

Thank you for the link, William. Pacific Rim provides a great overview of it. I've got to get out of here, away from the computer for a while -- within the last hour I've come dangerously close to using that "Buy It Now" more times than I care to admit!!! The only thing that has stopped me so far is that my bank does not do international transfers; perhaps living in a tiny town is a blessing in disguise 🙂.

Oh, now that is pretty, square format too....
Good thing I'm too broke to buy it 🙂

My M5s need red dots!
Looks yummy... but these arsenall people usually flood the market with high-priced items. How's this one in comparison with others?
Now that I look at it... I would thank them for the BIG deterrent of the price! 🙁

Outrageously high for a Tenax II ($300 to $500 depending) but hard to place a value on the 27mm Orthometar, 75mm Sonnar, and the finder -- these items are extremely rare. Good chance it isn't going to end up at my house 🙂.SolaresLarrave said:

Am I going senile or something? I don't see any link to a camera on sale/for auction in any of the posts above. Are you all talking about the same thing?
Here's my take on what you're all talking about (possibly):
Tenax II Kit + 2/4cm + 4/7,5 cm Sonnar II Kit + 2/4cm +

Same link, Peter -- it was disguised with the word "this."

That is major bucks. I know that there is another one on eb*y at a much lower price. Not as pristine as this example. This one looks as though it was dropped off by a timelord in a TARDIS.

See I completely missed that, and I feel stupid about it. I'm used to links being underlined, it is a hypertext convention used all over the internet (see my post for the underlined link).Honu-Hugger said:
Thanks for the explanation Doug, but I would really like to see underlined links on the forum... 🙁

With this set it's not really so much the camera as it is the accessory lenses (27mm and 75mm); these are extremely rare. Although the camera looks quite nice, too.Fedzilla_Bob said:

Not trying darken the mood but I'm pritty sure that we were, Cautioned/advised about this seller on this forum before. I believe a couple of our European members had problems with them.. I seem to remember Joe or someone coming out witha comment like,
"Danger, Danger, Will Robinson"
Mike.

Something a little fishy there, Doug... look at the accessory finder: Not square proportions. Must be the wrong finder for any lens in that package. But that small clip-on finder mask, if that's what it is, looks right...

I've never seen an auxilliary finder for one of these -- I suppose it could be masked on the inside, or perhaps it is wrong. At any rate the compulsive urge has passed, I'm better now 🙂...got away from work and out of the house, took a nice long motorcycle ride this afternoon and on into the evening. I even managed to take a few pictures while I was out -- I had a Tenax II and a Contax IIa with me in the tank bag.Doug said:
Sounds like a very pleasant evening for you (windy here). The Tenax is an intriquing camera...

That's the price of several Rolleiflexes with Zeiss lenses, Honu 🙂
