Equipment Type: Rangefinder
Equipment Brand: Voigtlander
Equipment Model: Voigtlander Bessa R3A Black textured finish
Price (S$): $560
Description:
Voigtlander Bessa R3A textured finish black body 3 digit low serial number $560
Features - Aperture priority AE + Manual exposure modes. Larger 1.0x viewfinder magnification same like Leica M3, great for focusing.
The rangefinder is accurate
Outer cosmetics is very good, only a few spots of paint loss mainly on the base plate
Film chamber baffle has light wear marks where the back of a lens rubbed against it.
In rare occurrences, the film advance mechanism can temporarily disengage if the lever is cranked fast and with a lot of force.
Seems like this is a built in safety feature to prevent tearing the film but if happens, the shutter is not cocked so the previous shot will not be double exposed.
Winding the lever slowly and gently immediately after always works in advancing the film and cocking the shutter and there's no problem after that.
Sale includes:
Bessa R3A body
shutter button soft release
(no strap, no case, no box)
If you like what you see and want to buy the item, SMS 98451981 to arrange for fast deal at Yio Chu Kang MRT
Guideline on price - if your budget is very very very very very much less than the asking price, sorry no sale.
Reason for selling the R3A - I'm selling all my camera stuff.
