Here we have an excellent condition and fully functional Ricoh XRP 35mm film SLR with a very nice Rikenon P Zoom 35-70mm f/3.5-4.5 zoom lens. This camera also comes with its original manual, strap, lens cap, and (interestingly) a cassette tape manual!
This camera ships with new batteries installed, and is ready to produce another lifetime of fantastic photos.
The Ricoh XRp is an advanced electronic 35mm film camera with multiple program modes, aperture priority mode, shutter priority mode, and full manual mode with light meter assistance.
This means that the photographer can control every parameter of the settings, or he or she can let the camera calculate exposure and allow the photographer to focus on taking a picture.
Another interesting feature is the multiple exposure switch!
This is a fantastic and affordable general purpose camera for the enthusiastic or new film shooter. The camera is in very nice condition, with no damage or marring. The viewfinder, film compartment, mirror box, shutter, and battery compartment are all very clean and in great condition. All dials, switches and knobs click and actuate exactly as they should. The light meter works perfectly.
The included lens has a zoom focal length of 35-70mm. This makes it an ideal setup for many types of general purpose photography, including landscape, snapshots, action, family photos, architectural shooting, and street photography. The aperture ring clicks as it should, and the focus ring spins fluidly. The mount is pristine, and the filter threads are unmarred. The aperture blades are snappy and oil free, and the glass elements are free of any blemishes, balsam separation, cleaning marks, and fungus.
Additionally of note is the fact that this camera uses the popular K-mount lens system, meaning that many lenses from various makers can be natively mounted to the machine. These include offerings from Pentax, who made some of the best lenses of the day.
It will be carefully packaged and shipped immediately.
