Here is one camera I need to part with, had it in my collection for a while and I thought of posting it here before puting it on E-bay.
It is a Kodak Retina Reflex III (SLR) with a 135mm Coligon lens made by Aetna in Japan (very sharp lens). The body is almost mint, rangefinder is acurate, so is the meter and all speeds (1 sec. to 1/500), having been just CLA'd. Lens is clean and has no scratches, fungus or haze, comes also with its own anodized aluminum (aluminium for ye brits...) shade, which is not pictured. The only minor flaw that I see with this baby is the reflex mirror, which is slightly spotted on the very lowest edge of it, having no effect whatsoever on the viewfinder. I s'ppose someone treid to clean it and stopped in time. Here are some pics of the camera:
I also have three lenses for it, all Schneider Kreuznach:
50/1.9 Xenon, 135/4 Tele-Xenar and 28/4 Curtagon. The last one has a little filter rim dent which I will straighten out tomorrow. Otherwise the lenses focus smoothly, aperture blades are clean (no oil) and function well, glass is clean.
Here are pictures:
I am trying to get $100 for the camera body and the 135 Aetna lens and $75 for thenother three lenses, plus shipping. If anyone's interested drop me a PM
