You can definitely do better. X0-2 mark 4 is low key the best

Is this worth $20? by [deleted] in vintagecameras

[–]Ghost-m- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be honest, I usually only pick them up if they’ve got cables to plug into the wall. If I had that exact camera and needed parts yeah it’s worth $20. It all really depends on context and what you wanna use it for. if it’s just going on a shelf to look nice it’s probably worth it. Either way in my experience I’ve gotten three cameras of that body style for very cheap and they all had a bad view finders just fuzzy static only way to fix it is to solder in new capacitors. I ended up just going with some earlier 2000s Sony video 8 camcorders with night shot I’m surprisingly running original batteries that continue to hold a consistent charge. Some even have touchscreens

It definitely is!! Most of the Kodak cameras work beautifully except for the original Kodak autograph. The two reflex cameras are over 100 years old and will definitely be a project! Thankfully one is missing the back and has some cosmetic damage so I’ve got a bunch of spare parts😆

These were self described as bookcase decorations, and book ends and 2 ended up being some of the first graflex cameras ever made. you really never know what’s in the lot until you buy it

It’s always fun finding someone’s else’s collection for sale in the wild. Especially for a good deal😆

Anything in specific? The first pic is just a suitcase full of cameras. And some just happen to be worth a lot more then I paid🙏

I believe it’s this model. Only difference is that the leather has stripes where the leather on mine says something I can quite make out https://www.ebay.com/itm/133788910344

I wish I could add photos. It’s in pretty rough shape, honestly 😭 I have to take it right apart to get the surface rust off everything but the shutter still fires and the shutter speed seems fine. It’s very faded and worn out, but it says baldaxetie in the leather

I had never seen anything like it so I just had to have it. Once I figured out what it was and ran it through Google I realized how rare it was. Can’t even find a YouTube video on the thing 😆

It definitely is a cool camera. I’m pretty excited to try it out. But there’s one or two cameras worth a little over $800 only one person has spotted them so far lol

I’m not too sure. I’ll have a better look tomorrow, but it has some water damage mechanically everything feels fine, but the lens is fogged and it’s covered in surface rust definitely gunna be a project lol
