Nice! Been wanting to pick up a 50 Switar but can't muster much enthusiasm for typical asking prices on That Auction Site.

My latest, sans body coverings.

I have one of these, might not be a broken/missing spring. Mine had grease under the rangefinder actuator that had hardened up to the point that it would move one direction but was too sticky for the spring to bring it back. Basically had to clean out the old grease and relube it and that fixed the motion of the rangefinder. It was a few years ago that I worked on it but it was pretty simple.

I took the rangefinder off the camera to see if I can clean and adjust it, but I found that the base plate of the RF slides into slots on either side of the body, and it was stuck solidly. No amount of prying or pressing, short of bending something out of shape, would let me get it off. Hans Kerensky has posted photos of the RF disassembly, but mine is different from his.

A fuji x-t2 in great shape, (to shoot along side my 100x, x-e1and x-pro 1).

I purchased "service" to remove the EV interlock on a Konica IIIA camera. Camera is much easier to use now that the shutter and aperture rings operate independently; much less fiddling needed to arrive at correct shutter speed and aperture.

I found this near-perfect W-Nikkor-C 3.5 f/2.5 on the dread auction site. I think it was mis-listed and placed in the wrong category, so there wasn't much competition for it, and I picked it up for a song. Came with case and caps and now my S3 is complete (but not perfect since this 3.5cm is the wrong year. But I'm a user not a collector!)

Oh, that's nice. Always liked the Alpa 9d and 10d cameras, beautifully made bits of camera equipment art.

​ Hey cal it the ugliest camera ever made. They call it an ergonomic disaster. They laugh at it. I bought it. 1938 Perfex Speed Candid. filedata/fetch?filedataid=114093

I got this one today for 25 pence. It came with a battery so I thought it was a good deal. On the positive side, you can permanently disable the flash.

Looks lovely.

Why do you refer to it as "the dread auction site"?

A Polaroid 900 to hopefully swap the rangefinder and cover onto my 110A then will convert to Instax Wide using the LomoGraflok back.

A purchase you will not regret! I have one for my Nikon RFs, and I consider it the best 50mm you can put on a Nikon. Blasphemy, I'm sure!
