Description from the seller
Nikon Nikonos IV-A Underwater Film Camera with Nikkor 35mm f/2.5 Lens
[Description]
Thank you for looking at my auction. This is the famous all-weather/underwater 35mm film camera, the Nikonos IV-A, paired with a bright Nikkor 35mm f/2.5 lens.
Please read the detailed condition report below before placing your bid.
Condition Report:
Power & Exposure Meter: The camera powers on. When looking through the viewfinder, the red LED indicator circle is visible. However, its exact accuracy has not been tested.
Shutter: The shutter fires properly.
Lens Condition: There is a noticeable amount of dust/debris near the aperture ring. No fungus is present, but there is a slight, thin haze (faint cloudy appearance).
Viewfinder: There is some visible degradation/peeling of the coating on the outer surface of the viewfinder glass. However, when looking through it, the view remains clear.
Battery Compartment: Very clean; free of any battery leakage or rust.
Dials & Levers: All mechanical dials and levers operate smoothly.
Film Chamber & Pressure Plate: Clean and in good condition.
O-Ring (Waterproof Rubber Seal): The O-ring appears slightly flattened, suggesting signs of aging/deterioration. (Please note: Underwater waterproofing has not been tested).
Cosmetics: No major scratches or dents. There are typical light scuffs from normal use. A previous owner's name was written on the body and has been removed; a faint trace of it remains visible under certain light.
Accessories: Included are the camera body and the lens (only what is shown in the photos).
※ Please note: This item has not been tested with film loaded, and actual photo development has not been performed.
Shipping & Important Notices:
Shipping: Will be sent via tracked shipping to ensure safe delivery.
Customs Duties: Please note that any customs duties, taxes, or import charges are the responsibility of the buyer depending on your location.
