Description from the seller

PLEASE READ CAREFULLY THE DESCRIPTION!
PLEASE READ THE DESCRIPTION CAREFULLY!
Mamyia Press Super 23

Medium format camera, a collectible piece but functional.
The camera is very aesthetically beautiful but obviously used and shows signs of wear, a few scratches and small defects due to use.

Accessories:

Back 6x9: takes 120 film;
Flat film/plate back: should be for 6x9 film or plates, I haven't used it personally but the ground glass for focusing is in decent condition (it has a few scratches that do not preclude operation);
Macro extension tubes;
Flexible release handle: (NOT FUNCTIONAL) Once fired with the button the cable does not retract, so not usable but probably can be repaired; I have always used a classic flexible release or directly the lens' shutter button;

Lens:
Mamyia-Sekor 90mm f3.5.
In good condition, serviced, so shutter speeds are reliable, focusing is fairly smooth.

Bag:
Original leather bag, velvet interior, the bag is in good condition, provides security for the items (very sturdy) and portability, but is heavily worn.

Personally I have only shot two 120 rolls, kept mainly as a collectible/display piece.

The viewfinder shows some haze and a small scratch, the rangefinder seems to work correctly but has not been calibrated/revised. Focusing is a bit difficult in low light conditions.
