Condition Notes

The camera shows cosmetic wear consistent with regular use. Two of the front standard locking controls are missing their outer retaining knobs/caps; the affected locks still tighten normally, but the exposed threaded controls can be backed out completely if turned too far. Several folds of the bellows show creasing and localized wear, though the bellows remain light-tight in testing.
