FS: Rolleiflex MX-EVS Type 2 w/Carl Zeiss Tessar - EXCELLENT OUTFIT
For sale:
Superb, virtually mint Rolleiflex TLR, MX-EVS Type 2 model, with Carl Zeiss Tessar 3.5/75mm lens, circa 1954. MX means that it's an Automat with M and X flash sync and Type 2 means "exposure value system" which can be completely disabled by turning a button in the middle of the aperture dial (a Type 1 requires pressing a button in the middle of the aperture dial each time). The Type 2 of this model is highly-desirable for this reason, and this particular one is even more desirable because it has the Tessar lens rather than the Schneider Xenar which some have. Cosmetic condition: Collector's condition. All leather is intact and unmarked, bright metal parts look nice, and the whole camera looks like it was never really used during the past 50 years. Inside the chamber is flawless, and under the viewfinder, the mirror chamber is very clean. Functional condition: Recent CLA (in December). Shutter speeds are accurate, focus is accurate and smooth, dials turn nicely, ASA/film indicator works (on focus knob), film transport works smoothly. self-timer works nicely. In short, everything works as it should on this camera. The mirror is untarnished and pretty much like new, and the ground glass is also in good shape. Everything about the waist level finder is like new. Lenses: No cleaning marks or fungus. I can't see anything wrong with them, and I'm very picky. The taking lens, a Carl Zeiss Tessar 3.5/75mm definitely passes the "open shutter at Bulb, aperture at maximum and look through at a light source" test. The viewing lens is equally as clean. I want to sell this as a package, which includes: - Original brown leather case for this camera, with strap, in excellent condition. - Genuine rollei metal lens hood, bayonet 1, which installs with or without filters, in like new condition, with original leather case. - Rolleisoft 0 filter with leather case, in original box, excellent condition - Rolleifilter Gelb-Hell (yellow, equivalent to #8 Yellow) in excellent condition - Rolleifilter Gelb-Mittel, in excellent condition - Rollei Grun (green filter), in excellent condition NO LENS CAP. I don't have the mirror lens cap for this camera. This is not ebay junk! In the past few months, I was forced to sell off all of my stuff, including another excellent Rolleiflex and a like-new Yashica-Mat. This one, I intended to keep for myself because it is in such pristine condition. However, I can't afford to be just a collector at this time due to permanent, serious illness and no disability insurance, so it must go too (otherwise, you can be sure I wouldn't be selling this one!). Make me a reasonable offer for this superb MX-EVS 2 with accessories. I have a Paypal account, for your convenience. Pete Ottawa, Canada |
