HEY, YOU NEVER KNOW, MAYBE YOUR OFFER PRICE WILL BE ENOUGH FOR ME TO SELL THIS ITEM. Please be sure you know what you are buying. Vintage Sinar P2 4x5" Complete Kit With Metering Back, 12" Basic Rail & WA Bellows.The camera is in excellent working and cosmetic condition with minimal signs of wear. All movements and knobs work as they should. The kit comes with metering back, which allows you to use Gossen or Sinar metering probe and system (still has $850 value, and its optional accessory).And with clamp 2, which is much stronger, than regular and gives you much more stabilization of your heavy camera (still has $685 value, and its optional accessory). SEE ALL PICTURES. PLEASE READ ALL TEXT BELOW.---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------PLEASE NOTE: TWO FROM THREE LEVELS ON THE REAR STANDARD ARE EMPTY, BUT ONE HORIZONTAL (MOST IMPORTANT) FULL AND WORKS. YOU CAN EASILY REFILL OR REPLACE EMPTY LEVELS, BUT I PERSONALLY WOULDN'T WASTE MONEY AND TIME FOR IT. ONE HORIZONTAL LEVEL IS MORE THAN ENPOGH, OF COURSE, IF YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING :-) FRONT LEVEL IS FULL AND WORKS.-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------The P2 is Sinar's one of the best conventional view cameras. It is a pleasure to operate andis a work of art in its own right. Each tilt and swing movement is on a carefully chosenasymmetrical axis. This ingenious design permits rapid and reliable alignment of eachplane of the camera with exact precision and minimal readjustments. Scales on the frontand rear standards indicate every setting. In addition, each movement is micrometer-driven,another reason why Sinar is the view camera that most serious photographers aspire to own.Plus, with the P2 you have access to the largest line of accessories and specialty items availablefrom Sinar and other manufacturer. I am retired pro with 42 years in pro jewelry photography and I used to use Sinar system last 35-40 years practically every day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
