Hello,
Enough is enough! Stop camera cruelty and abuse! Report it if you see it! Don't be an accomplice!
Just rescued this Spotmatic IIa that was left for dead. Before doing anything to it I had to reassure it "Don't worry, you are safe now". It seems it was abused and probably kidnapped because somebody tried to change its identity to a black SPIIa.
*WARNING* STRONG IMAGES:
Yes, that is GREEN paint!
So... this came out of nowhere. Saw it on ebay, lowballed just the price of shipping and got it. Haven't worked on it but the black paint is very thick. Maybe oil paint like the one you use on iron gates. Yikes! The shutter fires at all speeds and sound correct. This will take some elbow grease.
Stay tuned...
Thanks,
