Alpa, for the person who feels that Leica is just not a well made camera, or lens for that matter. Made in Switzerland by watchmakers with the very best of lenses made by ciné lens makers Kern, Kinoptic, Schneider Kreuznach and Angenieux. This will all be for sale on our eBay store. But be forewarned, pretty much all of it needs service. Even the very best needs careful storage and periodic service. Pur Sang thoroughbreds are touchy compared to a good mule. That’s why the pros opted for Nikon, Canon and Leica. Did he just call Leica a mule? Ha!!!

For your consideration the mighty Fuji GX680 6X8 camera. Next to a Mamiya RB67 and the positively diminutive Hasselblad C/M it really stands out. Basically a roll film view camera, it has a bellows and offers front standard movements. The viewfinder is amazing. It’s a modern version of the classic fin de siécle Graflex SLR, which was considered a portable camera at the time, it offers unparalleled control. We have two of these in the shop at the moment. Did you know Fuji is the only company to offer the 6X8 format? In the GX and the Texas Leica. Stop in and take a look.

Disclaimer: we do not fix cameras. We take them apart. But seriously we do not fix cameras. We can replace door and mirror seals on many cameras which is what Jose and Lorenzo are doing here. We do not clean sensors. On the plus side we have contact info for various repair facilities so feel free to ask about that if you need some work on your prized possession. Be aware that the vast majority of point and shoot film cameras can’t be, or aren’t worth getting, repaired. But often issues like dead batteries or dirty contacts are an issue.

Thank you all for following us this year and thank you for being great customers. We really appreciate it. It has been a pleasure helping you all with your photographic projects. We look forward to seeing you in 2026. We are closing out the year in style with something fun. A 1931 Leica C model 1, one of the progenitors of the modern 35mm rangefinder camera. Looks a bit scruffy but it works well and at 95 years old it has literally been through the wars. As usual it’s for sale, just hit us up.

A public service alert from your friends at PhotoSource: don’t leave batteries in your gear if you are not going to be using it. Not for a few weeks but certainly if you are not going to be using it for months. We see this all the time with cameras, strobes and meters. Take the battery out and your gear will be good when you go back to it. That is all. Oh! We also carry batteries for most cameras so drop in and let us help you out. Cheers!!!
