Optics not like they used to be. Susceptible to camera shake. Limited depth of field and. 50iso setting only. All offers considered.

Sounds like more of a collectors item, can you post a picture I would like to know how it will look on my shelf.

About as collectable as beta max

Looks like this photographer will need some cleaning, I think I can see some fungus, I might have to reduce the offer that I was considering.

No this one's the mark II. Due to the trimming of fascial hair, at least 50 grammes was shaved of the weight. Whar whar.

This outdated unit looks like it needs not just a clean and adjust, but a major overhaul. I'd say -"Caveat Emptor!".

Enda-
If this was a shrewd ploy to get us to look at your website, it worked for me. The architectural work is really nice, but it's hard to get as worked up about architectural photography (at least, for me). The landscape work is remarkable, and truly engaging work. I could get lost drifting through those images (in a good way).
As for your photo, I have to say that I think you look slightly better with more closely cropped hair. I don't think the one you posted here on LL really flatters your facial features much and draws focus from your engaging smile. Also, before I make an offer, is the eye with the cataract your viewfinder eye? It could have some bearing on your ability to deliver maximum sharpness.

Can't help you there - I already have one..

Those photographs are actually close ups of the fungal growth on the item for sale.

Yes the cateract eye is the viewfinder eye. The item for sale is a twin lens reflex. You can be assured that the other only occasionally falls out. It's made of good stuff and a quick polish and it pops back in.
