This is a long shot I know, but I thought I'd post this and see if anyone is interested.

I've had this Leica for about four years, bought it when I was in Canada. I got into DSLR's in Korea and finally figured this isn't going to see much use if it stays with me. Also, we have a baby on the way and this won't do anyone much good sitting collecting dust...

It's immaculate. It has the 50mm [collapsible], 28mm f2.8 and 90mm f2.8 (all leica), the Leica TTL flash and a 25mm Voiglander f4 w/viewfinder.

I also have a Minolta light meter Model IVF with spot attachment and a Billingham Hadley bag.

If anyone is still doing film and is interested, please PM me. I don't want to get into a p***ing war on the boards with prices, but welcome informed and reasonable interest privately.

Cheers,

UPDATE:

The camera and lenses are all black. I forgot to list the Leica polarising filter specially made for rangefinders. It has the fitted case and lens adapter ring as per stock.

I prefer to sell the Leica stuff as a whole kit, but the Billingham and Minolta stuff can be bought separately. I have a 10 degrees spot attachment for the Minolta and it includes the fitted case and an extra flat diffuser for copy work.

Again, reasonable offers are welcome.

Thanks,

very nice gear ... the leica m6 is a very decent camera.

i'd make you an offer, but it's worth more than i'm prepared to spend ... so i won't insult you with a splifalicious lowball offer.

i don't care much for billingham bags ...

but i might pm you about the light meter.

good luck selling the leica ... wish i could afford to buy one!

[smwood]

Thanks Superdave. I'm surprised you don't like Billingham. I think they are the best bags I ever used, including Domke and LowePro. Each to their own.

And thanks for not making a splifalicious offer. I have no illusions about the value of such a kit, but I'm not stupid either. Thanks for being respectful of that.

Yeah, probably won't find many English teachers willing to dump a paycheck on a camera...but who knows.

If I were you I'd try to get some use out of it. Get some nice pics of the baby!

BTW - It's NOT digital, right (your post is a little confusing).

[smwood]

Oh I don't know about that: I have dumped loads of money from teaching into cameras...

But you are right it's a film camera. I thought that was clear from the post's subject.

I am now selling this as individual items, so if anyone is interested please PM me and we'll go from there. The 28mm Elmarit is on hold pending sale.
