Rare press camera from the 1950s with interchangeable lenses. Finder framing, focusing scale, finder parallax, rangefinder and even the external sports finder's parallax are coupled to each of the lenses and adjust automatically. All these mechanisms have been serviced. Synchro-Compur shutter runs well and even the self-timer is working.
Finder optics, including the rangefinder have been cleaned, but the rangefinder spot is still really faint and we deem it usable only with high-contrast subjects. Still, focusing appears to be accurate. Focusing screen has aged, but is perfectly usable.
Comes with three Schneider-Kreuznach lenses: 105mm f/3.5 Xenar, 65mm f/6.8 Angulon and 180mm f/5.5 Tele-Xenar. 105mm and 180mm are tidy and scratch-free. 65mm has some light haze, which can affect images, e.g. contre-jour. Otherwise 65mm is tidy and scratch-free.
Kit also includes a compatible Plaubel Rada 6x9 roll film back, in very good condition. Two rear lens caps, one front cap, one lens hood, external sports finder, left hand grip and a right hand side flash / accessory rail are included, too.
