So, I just picked up this pack of gear for $45. Everything seems to have been very well kept and working, though obviously enjoyed. Even has some unused 35mm film in the bag. Not sure how old the film is, but I'll probably run it through this or my K1000 at some point.

I'm a very happy man today. All for $50.00

This image came from the Craigslist ad. https://pensacola.craigslist.org/pho/5088101665.html

The paper and timer alone are worth it by a mile IMO. A Nikkor 50mm 2.8 on the enlarger as well. The seller had it listed for $99 then $79, by time I got there it was $49.

That's excellent. Nice score, J

I haven't kept up with used prices in 135 format and have had that 50/1.2 lens a long time. How expensive is it these days?

I will let you sell it to me for $50. J/K

I bet you can sell it for a premium these days if it's like the one up for sale right now.

This was an Ebay purchase. $350, which is pretty low for a 2.8

If that Rolleiflex is as good as it looks then that price is very low indeed! I know as I have been looking too . . .

So far, it's working very well. It's missing a small screw from one of the strap brackets, and the slow speeds are off, but the lenses are fairly clean, and the film transport works well.
I've been keeping an eye on Rolleiflex 2.8s for awhile, and they're usually out of my budget. I got lucky with this one.

I keep shaming a colleague into selling me his Rolleiflex since he hasn't used it in years. That and some green hasn't convinced him yet!

No Pentax lens in my wide angle collection so far, but I am sure a HD PENTAX-DA 645 28-45 mm F4.5 ED AW SR will arrive some time :-)

What's the focal length and aperture on that Schneider? It's making me all tingly

Everyone "needs" a Rolleiflex

There is a nice boxed Rolleiflex at a camera store near where I work. I believe it's a model T type 2, I forget the price.

If anyone wants more info let me know, I'll check it out next time I pass the store.

I just received an old Nikkor 85 mm f1.8 last generation, a K...that was Aid, now it's the official lens of my F2A system:



It takes beautiful pictures (see other thread).

I'm also becoming fond of these 70s Fujicas, they are quite similar to Spotmatic, for certain aspects even better:

That's a sweet setup Cuthbert. I have a pair of F2's-chrome F2AS and black F2 eye level. And I'd like to have the 85 1.8 K like you have. I have the 85 1.8D AF lens.

I'd be curious to know what the price is.

I'm working tomorrow and will check it out.

Took a look at lunch today and here is a picture. Camera looks in mint condition with all the boxes. $1250 CDN, which would be around $940USD.

Very nice as I have also been trying to acquire one or two of these Fujicas (701, 801 or 901) with a Fujinon or two.

I knew that Colton's find was priced very well as these Rolleiflexes command a pretty penny!


Thanks for reporting back.
