General Condition:
The body is in overall good condition, with minor signs of previous use.
The original leather covering is in very good condition.
The focusing hood works great as it should.
The focussing screen has been replaced by a new BrightScreen MPD from RICK OLESON, with a 6mm diagonal split image set in a microprism collar with line spacing pattern. The MPD screen is best with eye level finders, geometric subjects such as architecture, and for general photography. We find it very comfortable to use even in bright sunny day. Please note, there are some light usage marks on it.
Both lenses are in good condition without fungi, haze or separation.
There are some light cleaning marks on the taking lens that have no effect on the picture quality (check the picture gallery taken with the camera in our final test)
The Synchro-compur shutter has been cleaned and re-lubricated and now works very well at all speeds.
The self timer is operational .
The flash connection has been tested and works fine.
What we've done:
We did a full overhaul of the camera.
The front and the optical elements have been disassembled and cleaned up.
The cranking system has been fully overhauled, cleaned up, lubricated and tested.
Same for the focussing sytem which has been adjusted after full overhaul, cleaning and lubrication.
We fully checked the camera and all movements are fine.
We fully tested the camera on EKTACHROME 100
