Duplicates for trade

Dear forum members,

I'm posting this exclusively in the closed thread for forum members only, I have a lot of duplicate cameras accumulated in my collection and I looking to trade them for something I don't have.
Most of these are uncommon or somewhat rare. It's too many to post in the forum,here's a link to my google album:

If you are interesting in something feel free to send me your list of cameras for trade back. [:)].

Don't hesitate to ask any question or contact me via forum by clicking on my profile.

Best regards,

I've just had a quick look, Vlad.

I'm wondering why you thought you needed so many kalimar 200 cameras?

I'm also wondering what the differences are between the Kalimar 200's and the Kalimar 300? I've just remembered that the Zenith E had a manual stop down for the aperture and the Zenith EM had an automatic stop down aperture, so there's no need to answer that. lol.

Hi Sean, Kalimar SR200 has a few different variations, I always get them since they can be bought in USA but are quite rare in Russia and Ukraine, I've probably traded around 10-15 of those already. [:)]. SR200 is Zenit E and yes SR300 is EM.

Cheers,
Vlad

Thanks for the reply vlad. Are the differences noticeable or are they tiny and only collectors would be able to see them?

Apologies for the late reply, but I'm a lazy pig. lol.

There are a few differences. In SR200, there are stick on logo that was done early on cameras bought from International in Panama, refurbished and logo plate slapped on and a silkscreen logo that was special ordered from KMZ via T.O.E. London by Kalimar. There is an olympic variation as well as a smaller stick on plate and a separated "Kalimar" and "SR200" on both sides of the body. And there is a black version,

For SR300 there is a black version and various olympic versions. Also SR300 has an earlier logo plate with larger margins around it and a very big stick on plates that are reminiscent of Cambron stick on plates, which by the way Kalimar also did for Cambridge photo, branded and sold Zenits to them for resale.

SR100 has both stick on plate and a silkscreen logo, same deal as SR200.

I will post a photo of variations if you'd like at some point later.

Best regards,
Vlad.

Thanks for the very quick reply and the info vlad. :-)

Thanks for the offer of posting photos, yes I'd like to see some.

I recently got a Prinzflex 5oo (from a charity shop I volunteer at) which has a stick on nameplate. I wasn't going to get it, as I already have too many cameras for the space I've got, they're all in the walk-in closet in which I have all of my books, dvd's and pc software that aren't games and in order to get to any book or dvd I have to move stuff to get to the stuff I have to move so that I can get to the stuff I want to get to, but the shop also received a 135mm lens which has an iris which closes and opens far too slowly to be used in in it's "auto" mode. Luckily it has a "manual" mode and I tried ot on the Prinzflex 500 and I was suprised at how bright the focusing screen is and how easy to focus it is so I thought I'd put a film through. I'll probably take it ack to the shop so they can sell it but if I can include a film I took using it it will show buyers that it works properly.
