Condition:
8 out of 10. Excellent cosmetic and working condition with light signs of age and use. Shutter speeds sound accurate, film advance is smooth, and meter coupling functions correctly. The original eye-level prism (non-metered “needle point” finder) is clean and clear, with minor dust typical for its age.
