The perfect “every day carry”medium format camera?

Can’t afford / want a smaller camera than the Fuji GF670?

The Fuji GS645 Pro is a fully mechanical, medium format folder rangefinder, with a built in coupled light meter. Folded down, its no bigger than a small purse, and protects the lens more than just a lens cap would! (Not that you want to bang this up against rocks)

The particular camera has been fully serviced (Shutter, cocking mechanism, rangefinder and focusing mech) RF cover glass re-cemented and bellows hand-made and replaced. If the hand made bellows has longetivity issues for some reason, I will replace it with a professionally made one free of charge.

(One thing I could not fix, full disclosure, is a slight issue with the “T” exposure button. When used, the camera can accidentally fire when folding down. Can’t figure it out. Just don’t use it please.)

Sample pics are expired Ilford FP4 dev’d in Rodinal.

Up for grabs is this gorgeous all black SX70 Sonar SE.

This camera has been electronically converted to take the more readily available 600 film. Sensor has been cleaned externally.

The original sonar motherboard was beyond repair and was replaced with a working used spare.

Re-skinned with aggressive textured rubber.

Grab a serviced SX70 at a fraction of the price mint camera & retrospect is asking!

🐠 Fisheye go blurb 🫧

Two discounted 16mm Fisheyes!
They both have been gone through and performs well, however they do have quirks so please read the description!

Zenitar 16mm f2.8 Unlicensed Nikon F AI-S mount:
This lens was likely a prototype judging by the serial number and the fact that it initially did not work at all. The lens housing was painstakingly re-machined and adjusted to reach infinity focus, and have the aperture working. The outside of the hood has been lightly shaved for reasons.

Fisheye Nikkor 16mm f3.5 Non-Ai: This one comes from my personal collection, and because I didn’t have intensions of selling it, the lens recement job in the rear was hastily done by the past me. It produces sharp and reasonable results so I must have done an okay job, but is not perfect. I bought this lens with the “hood” portion of the lens missing. No idea why. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Both lenses comes with their special lens caps.

Everyone’s favorite TLR is back in stock!

Yashica Mat 124 & 124G.

Both have had the transport mechanism as well as the shutter fully taken apart and serviced. The focusing mechanism was inspected but left untouched.

Light meter does work on both, but are worse for wear. It’s 40+ year old Cds Cells… Accurate within about a stop. Uses SR44 / LR44 with custom battery compartments designed & made in-house.

The forward facing surface of the rear element on both cameras has coating damage, but is not hazy. Unfortunately this is extremely common on Yashica-mats and nothing can be done about it. Should not affect pictures.

Mat 124 -$350-
Mat 124G -$350-

Back to regular business hours!

Also back by popular demand! Cinejet 320D!

For those who are unfamiliar, Cinejet 320D is Vision 250D ECN-2 film Re-spooled from 400 foot canisters in house. While I recommend shooting at 320 iso for C-41 Xpro, you can push and pull this film to your heart’s desire as it has quite a good latitude.

Same low price of $8.50 each.
Please request DX code stickers if you plan on using a Point & Shoot with no film speed selection.

$8.50 each
