Hi here

The lens wanted thread is great, but maybe some people here would be interested in cameras too, might it be for personal use, or just collection.

and enjoy this thread

Cant be 100% sure but i am sure my local camera shop had one in the window with a 50mm 1.7 ML
Price was a tad under £200.
Will PM the details to you for the shop you can always give them a call.
Or if you like i can give them a call from here tomorrow and enquire

That would be highly appreciated, thanks.

Looking for A Kiev 88, as few accessories as it can have, I don't bother if it is faulty (I want it to be repairable), I am looking for one as cheap as possible, even without lens, maybe I can find a normal lens at a good price.
I want to experiment with medium format, especially squares, and don't want to invest too much.

Many thanks.

In the right place at last:

I'm looking for an Olympus OM3 body. Cosmetics not crucial but full functionality is. I'm watching EBay all the time but if MF members have anything or know of something locally to them...

Thanks in advance Laughing

Not a camera I'm after but a spare part.
Well, I have an almost mint & fully functional Rolleiflex SL 3003 but unfortunately the silvered glass of the viewfinder mirror is broken (not the reflex mirror but the one that is activated when closing the waist-level finder thus transfering the image to the eyelevel finder), thus I need a replacement mirror. I know the official Rollei spares stock has long been exhausted. Anyone able to help?
Many thanks in advance.

Do you have any fragments and can you measure their strength? I have some bits of surface mirror about for SLR repairs which I could cut to size, but we'd have to figure out whether any of the strengths I have around would fit. If none do, Edmund Optics will probably have the strength you need.

Yes, I did manage to save a couple of fragments, so I'll do some measurements. Thanks for the tip.

Finally managed to take a measurement, its thickness is 1.17mm.
Fortunately, I found a local repairman who has some Rollei spares stock left and he says he can provide a replacement. Thanks for the suggestions!

I am looking for an affordable soviet FKD camera designed for 5x7 inch or 13x18 cm format.

What I need is the wooden camera itself, with at least one cassette, and the lens plate, and light-tight bellows.
I do not need the lens. Aesthetic condition of the camera does not matter, as long as it is functional.

This is for an experiment, so I am looking for a relatively affordable solution. Please PM me if You have anything to offer.
