Hey Jason,

You request came through my email so I thought I would respond to what I have available:

Fotoman 617 MkII-L (LN) (http://www.fotomancamera.com/product_list.asp?id=188)

Rodenstock 90/6.8 Grandagon N
Fotoman Cone
Helical Focus Mount-S
Viewfinder Mask 90

Rodenstock 180/5.6 APO Sironar N
Fotoman Cone & Cap
Helical Focus Mount-S
Viewfinder Mask 180

Optical Viewfinder
Dual-Axis Bubble Level
Panoramic Ground Glass & Case
Auxiliary Rangefinder (metric)

Original Metal Case (LN)

I have over $3,500.00 in the system. I bought the camera new in April 2009 from Paul Droluk when he owned Fotoman Camera. Paul told me that I bought one of the very last ones made.  I had an ambitious project to photograph where I currently live in panoramics, but my work has taken more of my free time.  I have only taken the camera out three times and it performed superbly every time with "keepers" to show for it.  I never mounted the 180 on the cone, but I have shot with it for a few years on my Ebony 45SU. The 90/6.8 came with the camera when purchased. I purchased the ground glass and aux rangefinder new from Midwest Photo. Even though the viewfinder came with the camera when new, I have never been able to slide it on, and found it to be an excellent composition tool for walking around and looking where to setup.  Over all I hate letting it go, but it is not being used. I would be happy getting $2,000.00 plus shipping/paypal costs for everything. Let me know if you are interested or if someone else may be, PM/email me!

Thanks,
Darr
