Item Description
I've finally come to the point where I feel I need to sell my 124G. I love this camera so very much and it has produced roll after roll of great images for me, but I just haven't been using it enough recently to justify keeping it. My new Pentax 67 has taken its place

I bought this used a while back from Peace Camera in Raleigh, NC. I have since probably ran 20-30 rolls through it and have kept great care of it. It is in excellent condition minus a few tiny scratches on the back of it (from normal use) The meter works perfectly and matches my K20D perfectly. I have no hesitation going shooting using it solely. It has never failed me. The battery is fairly new and they last a long while.

I would like to sell this so I can pick up a Contax G2 and 28mm 2.8 and eventually the 45mm f2. Help fund my addiction

Here are two photos of the camera. I can get more easily if you need any. Be sure to check my flick for shots taken with this wonderful camera. I have tons on there.

Your camera is in such good condition and a good price too!
I borrowed my brother's and just shot a roll with it couple weeks ago. Here are some sample pics: Sam’s Photo Blog First Roll with Yashica Mat-124G

Wow. Great photos. What were those scanned with?

*SamC* · 12-01-2008, 08:25 AM

Thanks

It is an Epson 4870 with a homemade negative holder.

Nice camera, but AUD is too low....

That is a truly beautiful camera, but already have more tools than I can use

Price lowed to 220.

Beautiful camera, and I'd consider it if I didn't already own one.

Probably one of the nicest TLRs optically if you don't want to lug around a Mamiya C series. Have a 20x20 print from a 124G hanging on the wall next to me and it's superb in the amount of detail and color rendition.

I need to make some large prints with mine. I've only done a bunch of 10x10's thus far.

I had one of these in the late 60s and can't remember what happened to it. Those were my reckless days.
