Available Technika IV kit at Glazers in Seattle

[rdenney]

For those in the Seattle area, I was in Glazer's today and noted a Linhof Technika IV in experienced but reasonable user condition. Lenses included a 150/5.6 Symmar convertible, a 90/8 Super Angulon in a 00 shutter, and a 240mm f/9 Ronar. All are mounted on Linhof boards (recessed in the case of the 90). All come with cams. Anatomical grip is included, as well as Linhof variable viewfinder, old style. Graflok-style back with hood is included. They have priced out the parts separately, so anyone who wants a kit knows what to do. Everything seemed to work when I played with it.

I was sorely tempted, but its just not my style of camera and all I would ever done with it is look at it.

Total price they had marked today came in under $1500 for all of the above.

They also had a nice Canham, a Toyo 45ax, and a couple of Wistas. But the Tech was such a complete kit it seemed to worth reporting before the parts start selling a piece at a time.

Every time I've been there Glazers has had a pretty tempting LF camera of one sort or the other. Another good place in the area to check is Kenmore Camera. They almost always have LF lenses for sale and sometimes cameras. Along with the various other bits (film holders, meters etc..).
