The camera and lens are in good vintage condition with normal signs of use appropriate to their age. The shutter works well and the speeds seem fine. The light meter also responds. Because of the age, the accuracy of the light meter and the shutter speeds cannot be guaranteed. The lens is clear and the diaphragm is oil-free, and the zoom works well.
