Contax 645 body, MF-1 prism, battery pack, hand strap, grid screen. Tested! VG

Description: Contax 645 body # 011025 with MFS-3 grid focusing screen, plus MF-1 AE prism finder # 007363 (fully functional), MP-1 battery pack # 002491 (fully functional), Genuine Contax adjustable hand strap,Front body cap (a small hole was drilled in the center of the cap for the shutter speed tests).If you buy more than one item, I will combine shipping of multiple auctions into a single box, if possible. You will be charged only my actual out-of-pocket cost for shipping and insurance. Ask for a custom invoice before paying. Here are the functions I was able to test and the camera passed:Power on / off,Auto focus, single shot and continuous,Auto exposure (shutter speed changes in Av mode and aperture changes in Tv mode as the light changes),Shot mode: single, continuous, 2 second delay, 10 second delay,Successfully switch between Av, Tv, M, X and B exposure modes,Lenses attach securely with no play and detach smoothly and easily,Shutter button on the MP-1 battery pack works or can be turned off,Film backs attach securely and detach easily,Camera will not fire with dark slide inserted,Aperture: lenses all react appropriately to aperture changes when the shutter is released.Shutter speeds have been tested, and all are accurate except for 1/4000 and 1/1000. But 1/4000 reliably produces a shutter speed very close of 1/2000, and 1/1000 is only off by 14% -- an error that would be difficult to see even with transparency film. IN EFFECT, THEN, THE ONLY UNAVAIALABLE SHUTTER SPEED IS 1/4000. The full results of the shutter speed tests (details and summary) are posted as the final JPEG. If you can't read the numbers, message me. I'll send a larger JPEG or a PDF. Functional condition: With the exception of the fastest shutter speeds, perfect, as far as I know. In more than 5 years of use, I never lost a photo due to camera malfunction. Return is welcome if I'm wrong about the condition. Cosmetic condition: The top of the prism finder has marks (see photos), otherwise good to very good for the other components. Guarantee: Item is guaranteed to be exactly as described and fully functional. For local pickup: if you complete the purchase here on eBay and then find an issue that I did not mention in this listing when you come to pick up the printer, I will go online, cancel your purchase and issue a full refund while you are here. Shipping: I try to offer multiple shipping options. Since I don't know which option will be the fastest and / or the least expensive to your postal code, please check out all available options before picking one. I offer combined shipping for multiple purchases paid for at the same time. Where possible I will ship everything in one box and pass all shipping cost saving along to the buyer. Request a custom combined invoice before paying if this applies to you. Insurance: This item will be shipped fully insured for the entire purchase price. That's why eBay's quoted shipping cost may seem high at first sight. Returns: No returns for cosmetic issues unless you spot a cosmetic issue not mentioned in the description or shown in a photo. The photos in this listing are extensive, are of the exact item for sale in this listing, and were taken recently. I do accept returns for functional problems not mentioned in the listing. Feedback: Even a quick look through my feedback from buyers makes it clear that I am honest and accurate with my descriptions. (I've received 1 negative feedback in 25 years of selling on eBay, but he was an idiot. And a thief. It happened last Summer, so you can still look up his complaint and my reply in my Feedback.) I will leave feedback for all buyers, and ask that all buyers leave feedback for me. I strive for 5-star detailed feedback in all categories. If you don't honestly feel that I've earned 5-star feedback, let me know the problem. I'll try, if possible, to make things right.
