Originally posted by Bunch Typically I'm wary of Ebay purchases with little description and no seller history, but I gambled $35 and just won an ME Super with a SMC 55 1.8 attached. We'll see what shows up.
Gamble is the right word.
I've purchased several ME Super bodies. I have two that work fine. All the other ones appeared to work but then the film came back with poorly exposed frames, dark edges, or blur. Be sure to test the camera thoroughly. While I love my ME's, I consider them one of the least reliable bodies anyone ever made, right up there with Fuji's notorious AX-3 and Mamiya's ZE-X. Beautiful cameras when they work.
