You are looking at a Corfield 66 SLR 6×6 Camera
This incredibly rare camera was manufactured in the early 1960s and fewer than 300 bodies were ever produced.
It has its original Lumax 95mm f/3.5 Lens – this is in good cosmetic condition. The glasses are unscratched and the focus and aperture settings are smooth and fuction as they should. The aperture blades are clean. The inside of the front glass is quite cloudy – I’m unsure whether this is fungus or condensation.
The camera also comes in its original Case. This is in decent condition – the lid stitching has come away in part and the faux leather has broken away from the body of the case. It is still attached as the inside material is intact. The case still has its two dividers for the inside and the catch is fine.
The camera also comes with a film magazine and a wooden universal hand grip, both in good used condition.
Finally, there are manuals for the camera, the magazine, the extension tube and flash card (please note that this does not actually come with the extension tube or flashcard – I just have the manuals).
The camera itself is in good vintage cosmetic condition – some minor wear but nothing of real note.
The viewfinder opens and closes fine and the magnifier is in good nick. The camera cocks and fires fine on all speeds, including B.
The mirror locks into the up position by turning the “reflex” button.
I haven’t tested with a flash.
The photos form part of the description so please study carefully
A rare chance to buy one of these wonderful British cameras.
International shipping will be via courier but is expensive, for example Germany is 40. Please ask for a quote before bidding. NOTE – there are much cheaper courier services but none provide insurance on cameras so I won’t use them in this instance.
1934
