Title: Old Cameras . . .
Post by: bigredbass on November 05, 2003, 10:50:16 AM
I've a small collection of old, fixed-lens rangefinder 35s that I'm selling.  These are 60s-vintage including Minolta HiMatics, Yashica Electro 35s, Canonets, Konicas, even an Olympus SP, most with cases and a few vintage accessories. Most are excellent picture takers. A few are repair/donor pieces.
 
I'm asking $500 for this box full of vintage cameras.  EMail me at bigredbass1955@yahoo.com (http://mailto:bigredbass1955@yahoo.com)  
for a full list / description if you're interested in these 'iron' cameras.  They're a lot of fun, and speedwise blow any point-and-shoot into the weeds.  Plus they just ooze style !

Dr Ing Lindemanns:
 
I was without web service for a while, sorry I missed you.  
 
I've lowered the price to $300 after a little research.  This includes
 
3 Minolta HiMatics (7S, 9, and 11)
2 dead-mint Yashica Electro 35GSNs
2 Canonet QL17/GIIIs
1 Olympus 35SP
2 Konica Auto S
1 Konica Auto S2
. . . and most of them have cases, lens caps, OEM skylight or Tiffen UV filters, a few lens shades.
One Auto S is a donor/parts camera.  One Canonet and the HiMatic 9 and the other Auto S will require a little work.  All are in good to great cosmetic shape, and aside from the 3 mentioned above, all are GREAT picture takers.
