Canon AE-1 Program - Camera Collection of Ray Skinner

http://www.rayskinner.uk/canon-ae-1-program.html

Canon Canonet QL17 G-III. Unknown 9x12 folding plate. Zeiss Ikon Contessa LK. SLR #2448681 fitted with Canon FD 50mm f/1.8. This one needed a clean, a new battery compartment door which I had to source from the US, a new battery, and it suffered from the now famous 'cough', more of a wheeze when the shutter fires, a partial stripdown so I could access the mirror mechanism for oiling cured this. Back in the 70's, I had a Praktica but really wanted on of these but they were just too expensive then.

Halina 35X - Camera Collection of Ray Skinner

http://www.rayskinner.uk/halina-35x.html

Canon Canonet QL17 G-III. Unknown 9x12 folding plate. Zeiss Ikon Contessa LK. It is a viewfinder camera, not a rangefinder and was first manufactured in 1959 and has a Halina Anastigmat 45mm f/3.5. A local market buy, a bit rough around the edges, lens was dirty and sticking, so it all got a good clean. Another one where the leatherette had been peeled off so this got the 'red' treatment.

8203;Hi Lego Planet followers! Bert here with the next part of our brick bank construction. There are some awesome details in this kit. My personal favourites are the 'stained glass' windows and the chandelier. Shiny! The kit took us a few hours to build - mainly because we did it over a few days. There are lots of cool features and gadgets the largest of which is the vault on the ground floor which has a door which locks but a rather dodgy vent for the burglars to get in! 8203;I hope you like them.

Canon Canonet QL17 G-III. Unknown 9x12 folding plate. Zeiss Ikon Contessa LK. Zorki 4k (red) (Ser:75896302). Discovered the Zorki 4k's, I now have 3! As with a lot of the Zorki's, at some point the owner will alter the speed dial before they have advanced the film/shutter, this can damage the gearing inside to the point that it all jams, the camera is then deemed useless and sold for next to nothing. a complete stripdown, straightening of any bent pins, detents, etc, then fixes it.
