Happy holidays, folks!
I have a few items that may be of interest:
1. Agfa Ambi Silette (body only) – this lovely little rangefinder is in good cosmetic condition, but has an issue with the shutter. After the film is wound, the shutter sometimes trips as the wind lever returns to its resting position. If done gently, this can be avoided on many (but not all) occasions. It may be a simple fix, and I’d much rather that the camera go to someone who can put it to use. Alas, I have no lenses to pair with this body, but they are obtainable through various sources. CLAIMED
2. Minolta Hi-Matic 7 – Meter works, glass is clean, and shutter speeds sound accurate. One small issue is that the film advance lever, while working, does not spring back to its resting position and has to be manually brought back. This is probably a very simple fix, or something that one could live with. CLAIMED
3. Lensbaby Spark 50mm f5.6 focus shift lens (Canon EF mount) – this is a fun little lens for playing with focus shift effects using the ‘squeeze’ bellows. Not really my cup of tea, but perhaps it is someone else’s! CLAIMED
4. Canon EF 35-80mm f4-5.6 III (EF-mount) lens in good condition. CLAIMED
5. Miranda Auto-Miranda 50mm f1.4 lens for Miranda Sensorex (with the little aperture arm). Glass is flawless, but the rear section of the lens has a slight wiggle; shoots fine, and the loose bit is probably easily fixable for someone with some mechanical aptitude. CLAIMED
6. Carl Zeiss 115mm f4 Pro-Tessar attachment for Zeiss Ikon Contaflex cameras. For those who don’t know, this will only work on Contaflex cameras, as it is only the front lens element, and requires the rear component (which is part of the camera body) to work properly. CLAIMED
Please send me a private message if you’re interested in any of these items, and we’ll work out the details.
