Camera is currently posted on Ebay, look for it under user name Bruceb146, listing includes 15 photos, and my rating is 100%.
It's in great shape, takes wonderful photos and I will miss it. I'm selling it to start working with 6X9 Medium Format film. The camera I want is the Fujifilm GWS90III (Fixed 90mm 6X9 camera) - camera and film ain't cheap! With a 6X9 you only get 8 exposures per 120 roll.
I have it listed for $3500 on Ebay, but for this esteemed group the price is $3000 with NO tax, I'll pay shipping. Only selling to the Continental United States.
Please let me know if you have any questions
Thanks, Bruce

Bruce!
Best wishes for the sale of your Leica!
The Fuji 6x9 MF camera brings back great memories. The original Fuji(ca) GL 690 model was all metal and with a 100mm lens weighed a ton! I think the camera design was based or similar to the US military 70mm roll film camera which has similar size and ergonomics but in olive drab. I always wanted one but got a Fuji instead. Later models had fixed lenses, normal and both wide and telephoto. My outfit had the original three lenses and an accessory finder for the 65mm wide angle. Later models and there are quite a few were part plastic, resulting in a lighter camera. By changing the pressure plate, one could also use 220 film which might not be so readily available today. Fantastic quality. Later on, I shot 120 transparency film and had the images scanned. The film area is also 3:2 format, similar to a 35mm frame.
Be well! Ed

Hi Bruce, this is Julio, I wrote you on the original post before. My email is jbeistain@gmail.com. If you provide a phone number through email I'll get in touch. I used to live in Summit, NJ and currently in Argentina but no worries, a friend of mine in Florida would take care of the deal and receive the camera for me. Before I have him send you the money I'd like to talk to you, I hope you understand. Thans in advance, Julio.
