What Do I have?

[joebynum]

I have a camera that looks like a 11S with serial number 226762. It has slow speed settings of 30 X 15 8 4 2 1 T. It locks at 30. The high speed dial is B 30-1 X 60 125 250 500 1000. It has a rapid winder (ser12702) and is fitted with a 135 f3.5 lens (Cannon ser # 63908). It does not have a timer on the front. I have no clue which of the cannons this is. Any ideas ou there? Thanks in advance for your help.

Assuming that it has a side-rail flash mount, it seems to be a Canon IVsB2, an improved version of the IVsB. Serial number fits range in Peter Dechert's book. Nice camera

If dexdog is correct, it's a keeper. My first "real" 35mm camera with a Canon 50/1.8 lens. Like a jerk, I sold it.

Thanks guys.

Thanks guys.

That sounds like that may be it. The rapid winder is what was throwing me off. I suppose you could add the rapidwinder to any Cannon 11 etc.

Value?

Value?

I was trying to identify the camera, which is part of my fathers estate, to determine the value for my Mom. Any i9deas what it might be worth? Thanks again.

recent ebay sales are probably your best bet.
