Now, I know this isn't the best place for such an offer. But perhaps there's an old-school photographer lurking about.
I have this broken camera just taking up space and thought I'd find a home for it. It might be good for parts, or look nice on a shelf:)
It's a Honeywell, Pentax Spotmatic SP 1000 with a screw mount Pentacon auto 1.8/50 lense. The camera looks good, but is essentially a POS. There is something wrong with the mirror. It has what looks like a crack, and seizes up. Lense seems OK, though.
If anyone wants to pay shipping from Florida, I'll be glad to send it your way.
Cheers,

OK, that was quick. The camera has been spoken for. Thanks. |

Before you decide to send that on, you might consider that you could reverse that lens in front of your lenses on the EOS-20D, using a reversing ring coupler, and make it into a closeup lens.

Thanks Neil. I think it's a little late, but I've started a new thread about the topic you have brought up.

I'd love some input on this subject.
