Here we have a very nice Mamiya Sekor 1000 DTL 35mm film SLR camera with Auto Mamiya Sekor 55mm F/1.8 fast prime lens. The camera and lens are in great condition and work as they should.
The camera is cosmetically nice and mechanically perfect. The mirror box, pentaprism, film compartment, and battery compartment are clean and free of damage or corrosion. All lever, dials, and switches work as they should. The viewfinder does show minor dust that, while having no impact on images or function, is a bit distracting. The light meter works.
The included lens is a made in Japan Auto Mamiya Sekor 55mm F/1.8, which is a fast prime lens of the standard focal length. This makes it an excellent choice for general snapshots, all-purpose shooting, street photography, portraits, and more. The fast aperture of F/1.8 makes it ideal for low-light and available light shooting found in many photography scenarios, including street photography.
The Mamiya Sekor 1000 DTL is a well-made and reliable 35mm film SLR camera made in Japan. It is a fully manual camera with exposure meter assistance and a match-needle exposure display in the viewfinder. This makes it an excellent choice for those who want control over their photos and who want to see how changes to settings will influence exposure.
It uses the M42 universal screw mount lens mount, meaning that any and all M42 lenses can natively mount to this camera, including excellent lenses made by Pentax and Mamiya, among others. Additionally the included lens can be used on any M42 camera, as well as on new mirrorless digital cameras via inexpensive adapters.
A very nice value camera and lens combination, this is the kind of machine that will serve anyone very well without costing very much.
It will be carefully packaged and shipped immediately.
