For Sale GW690II

[chuckroast]

A beautiful, in the box GW690II with your name on it.

Notes:

• The strap you see is NOT included. The case, box, etc. are.
• The camera is super clean and appears to have had little use.
• The counter on the bottom is a liar. It wasn't advancing when I got the camera so I don't know the actual shutter count. This was fixed.
• The camera has been checked by a tech (CameraWiz) and pronounced healthy.
• There is no mold, fungus, or oil in the inner workings of the camera.
• You can see that there is some minor marking on the baseplate.

$1350 net to me includes S/I to anywhere in CONUS. Prefer Zelle, but will accept PP if you true it up.

15day right of return, no questions asked so long as the camera, box and accessories come back as shipped.

Gorgeous, but way out of my price range

The price is somewhat negotiable. Trades for a primo Leica M 28mm considered

These are wonderful cameras.

They're capable of very high resolution. Having no oil on the shutter blades is a must, that was the death of mine and no one's been able to repair it.

Oh wow. I never heard this before. Good to know. Good luck finding someone who can help!

Well, if I understand correctly, the reason they have that shutter counter is because they were going in for regular shutter service when they were being used as group photo cameras in Japan. I haven't been able to find someone who could repair mine, it sat with a repairer for over a year who could not help it. I don't mean to worry anyone, you'll probably get many many years of use out of one if it doesn't have dirty shutter blades.

The GW690II has a remarkable 90mm lens. I don't use mine enough, but when I do, the negatives always impress me:

Someone buy this superb camera.

I'm watching this and trying really hard to convince my bank account to create some extra funds! I have (and use and love) a 670 inherited from my Dad, it would love to have a 690 partner...

I would encourage this kind of thinking
