HU: Nice Nikon RF

[SolaresLarrave]

Heads up to you, collectors and shooters, about a Nikon S rangefinder with lens for sale at (still) a low price. Ebay auction No. 260171694707

As usual, I know nothing about the seller nor do I stand to make a gain. I just thought about letting you know about this one... so that I don't feel tempted to bid! 🙂

Take care!

I hope he hasn't accidentally screwed up the shutter speeds by rotating the shutter dial before winding on...

But he does appear to have a good amount of knowledge, and some great pictures to go with the auction.

Erik, the one under this number:

160147447424

seems to be in better shape.

Just someone bid on the stuff. The first looks like it's going to the shop right away, but the second one seems in better shape.

And I don't even want to think of another system... 🙄

Good luck and happy bidding! 😀

that ...707 S looks to be an estate sale type find, albeit a rough one.
this 609 S better not go for alot of money, fungus on lens and all.

Man... are these cameras complicated... I'm glad I stuck with Leicas.

But the glass was tempting, though...

Thanks for the sobering remarks about the shape of these cameras! 🙂

Gotcha. I guess I've just assumed incorrectly.

And Solaris, all the LTM Leicas had rotating shutter speed dials, as well.
