vintage cameras

[solane]

the lenses and flashes and assorted extras that are often tacked onto ebay auction cameras may just increase the camera price for you. do you really want or need a flash? i have several and except for rare moments when i'm feeling "flashy" they stay in a drawer. especially since i reserve my RFs for black + white film mostly, i seldom find need for a flash.

just something to think about so you don't pay more at auction for something you won't necessarily need.

where are you located? there are forum members living all over the world and may have recommendations for places to look for used equipment or repair shops. i got great tips of places to look while i was in chicago recently from a fellow RFF member (TEZillman).

You're right, solane. The flash I thought could be of use for indoor shots, but I can always use my digicam for those, I suppose. I hear that the GSN does pretty well in low-light anyway. The lenses, I'm not sure are important, but I do use the macro and zoom a lot in my digicam.


I'm located in Manila, Philippines.
