Someone has recently opened a shop for second-hand analog cameras, here in town. One of his offers: https://cameradealer.de/products/olympus-mju-ii-inkl-o Had a look on ebay and they're going for around 250 to 300 euros. Got one in my camera ancestors' shrine. Bought it new, years ago, for a bit over 100 euros. Ralf -- Ralf R.

Checking B, I get a price of just under $34,000-odd US for two M11 bodies, colour & monochrome, with current 35/1.4, 50/1.4 & 90/2.0 lenses, all new & warrantied. Buy that, some nice wider lens & a used m3. Still less than half what is being asked for a used Chinese m3 copy. -- %(real_name)s Pentax-Discuss Mail List To unsubscribe send an email to pdml-le...@pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
OT: Interesting collectors item
My local camera shop has had a Red Flag camera kit come in for sale. Going by the number of zeroes in the price they must be quite collectible. https://www.photo.co.nz/2nd-hand/second-hand-products/collectables/red-flag-camera-kit-s-h-3p3wem/ Here's some more info about how these kits came to be: https://kimon.hosting.nyu.edu/physical-electrical-digital/items/show/1241 Cheers, Dave -- %(real_name)s Pentax-Discuss Mail List To unsubscribe send an email to pdml-le...@pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
