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
