Equipment Type: Rangefinder
Equipment Brand: Ricoh
Equipment Model: 500G CLA'd Lightweight Compact Rangefinder with Auto Or Manual Features
Price (S$): $160
Description:
This little fellow is truly a nightmare. At least from the perspective of whoever is servicing the camera. Nevertheless, it's definitely a good performer having the Ricoh touch for compsct cameras. The lightseals are, unlike other cameras, plentiful. Commonly found with the lightseals disintegrated and causing a lot of unsightly ugly grimes on the film back. It takes like forever to clear the mess.
It is full manual or shutter-priority automatic. You set the shutter speed and either set the aperture to A for auto or manually select the shutter speed. It's a perfect size for compact rangefinder, and full-featured as well. Another plus is that it weighs a mere 420g.
This set has been CLA'd with lens cleaned, clearing it of any fungus or haze or scratches. Viewfinder has also been cleaned and right now clear and bright. The rangefinder is also correctly aligned and correct. Meter has also been calibrated and serviced.
Shutter has also been stripped and cleaned. Meter works great with the lens mounted CdS with viewfinder needle (aperture).
You will have great fun with this camera and being so compact, you will tend to bring it out more often a spin.
Comes with a 46mm filter, battery, a strap and 2 rolls of expired films.
The manual could be found here.
Please PM with your handphone numbers if keen.
