Fujifilm GX680 III Professional (6x8 Medium Format) Kit with Pelikan Case (USA)

Description: This Fuji GX 680 III Pro Full Kit is a professional grade camera camera for anyone who wants to take their photography to the next level. The incredibly advanced professional camera comes in a sleek black color in excellent shape and is designed as a studio or landscape camera. It is 6 x 8 cm aspect ratio which may be changed with optional templates not included. It is in excellent shape and only had one owner.What makes this camera very special is that it shoots on 120/220 film with a 6x8 aspect ration (although this can be changed to other formats with optional, not included templates for 6x6 or 6x7) which is considerably less expensive 4 x 5 large format camera. Each roll can take up to 9 images in either landscape or portrait mode. This is a heavy studio camera 10.8 lbs/4.9 kilos) and needs a tripod for portraits and product photography but some have used it for landscapes despite its heavy weight. Unlike any other medium format ever developed, the Fuji GX 680 III Pro has bellows, front standard tilts, swings, rises and rack manual focus like a view camera and is fully electronic and works perfectly. The rails allow for great macro-photography as well. (Extension rails may be found elsewhere on eBay). It is the largest medium format built and most versatile and certainly most advanced. (If you want to read about it go to Reddit/analog community and read the article; "Fuji GX680 - The Best Camera You Have (probably) Never Heard Of" . Or see this YouTube video which describes the model: https://youtu.be/OMEaIMq83zI?si=HV8OGBr6E2m7u1WH. This is another: https://youtu.be/TPVHVtQClp8?si=GDHDqiRJE4WheapFThis GX 680 III Professional is the most recent and most advanced camera made in the GX line. The previous first generation GX 680, GX 680 II Professional all had different less advanced shooting backs which required batteries. This does not. The Professional III was totally redesigned just 3 batteries in the plate under the camera which powers everything. And unlike the other GX 680 IIIS Professional (a simplified model), this camera comes with full bellows, tilts, swings, rises and rack manual focus If you buy a GX680 model here make sure you get the III Professional model which this is and is rare. Most of the others here on eBay are either plain 680s, 680 II or 680 II S. "S" stands for "simple" and that model doesn't have all the movement controls this III Professional does. This camera is the latest and newest of the product line made up until 2007.)This amazing kit includes many desirable options which are hard to find lenses made by Fuji known for their superior glass lenses: 2 fabulous Fuji medium format lenses: 1.) a very fast 115mm, 1:3.2. (equivalent to a 57mm full frame 35mm lens) and 2.) 210mm 5.6 (equivalent to a 105mm full frame 35mm lens). Both lenses have a maximum f/stop of f/45! Each may have some lens haze but it doesn't affect the image quality. (Plus, there are many fine Fuji lenses and accessories for this camera available here on eBay for very little). Both lenses are are perfect for portraits, product work and macro closeups. Optional (not included) extension rails may be attached to the front to extend the bellows to enable ultra-close up macro shoots for product or nature shots.In addition it comes with the optional focus viewing scope (with a full range adjustable diopter) that allows you to view the screen like an SLR. It has the traditional pop-up waist level viewfinder as well. There are many optional viewing screens that can be found on eBay if you require them.One other hard-to-find option included is the remote control that allows you to fire the camera remotely.This model also does autoload and advances the film automatically after each shot. The mirror may be put in the up position if needed. The unique film cassette is easy to load and pop into the camera.This full ready-to-go camera is powered by 3 batteries in the bottom of the camera. It comes with a full Pelican case with custom cut-outs for each piece of equipment. All returns will be accepted since I am selling the camera reluctantly as I am selling off all my photo gear.
