The camera does work when wound up, and all controls move freely. It is clean and has only light wear marks. The viewfinder seems rather dark - please assume that it may require internal cleaning.
All lenses appear to be in excellent condition, with no scratches or obvious internal issues.
I did not attempt to attach and run the electric motor system - I did not want to risk causing any damage as a result of my own lack of experience with it.
PLEASE NOTE! I am not an expert on this camera and associated parts, and have no way to test them for full functionality. Therefore this system is being sold as is. Please expect that it will need professional cleaning and servicing to perform at its best.
Please contact me with any questions you may have. Thanks!
