I have some of my late father's cameras and equipment for sale. The cameras are:-

PentaxME Super (with lenses)
Zeiss IKON Contaflex
Yashinon Yashica Mister (Mk II I think)

I don't know about their working condition I am afraid.

Any information would be very useful. Also have some film recorders:-

Bolex H16 RX-5
Bolex H16 (complete with original instructions, leather case and accessories)
Bolex Zoom Reflex P1 (complete with original instructions, leather case and accessories)
Bell and Howell TQ III Specialist (Film projector)

If anyone knows anything about the value of these items or would be interested in buying any of them then please get in contact. I also have 2 tripods and a few lights that we want to get rid of.

Thanks,

John

If you go to ebay and plumb in the various specs, you'll see how much (little) they are worth, as there is lots of said stuff for sale.

I have 2 Arriflexes as well so a nice threesome of cinematic glory! There is a market for good condition 16mm kit, it might be worth googling about for a bit and finding some specialist dealers. I still have these as I actually used to use them in the early 80s. Shame the Nagra4.2 is too big to join them on show as it is an exquisite piece of kit cloud9
