AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
NIKON Nikonos IV-A – tested and working.
• Condition: Excellent – no known issues.
About this camera
The Nikon Nikonos IV-A (1980) belongs to the legendary Nikonos line — the amphibious cameras that defined underwater photography for decades and were carried by scientists, divers and photojournalists alike. Sealed against water to considerable depth without any housing, it is equally at home in rain, surf and dust on land. Offered as body only; it requires a Nikonos-mount lens (not included).
Functional
Powers on; shutter works (1/90 s setting measured at 1/78 s).
Checked and working
- Shutter fires in automatic mode and at the mechanical M90 and B settings
- Exposure meter and viewfinder LED display work
- Film advance, frame counter and rewind work
Condition
Appearance: nice overall condition, with scuffs and scratches from normal use. Please check the photos for details.
Lens: clear – no haze, fungus, scratches or separation
Viewfinder: a few tiny specks of dust may be visible, as is usual for cameras of this age; they do not affect your photos.
Included: body only (no lens). Only what you can see in the pictures will be included in the package.
As a used item, minor imperfections may exist that are not individually described.
Shipping: FedEx or Japan Post (ePacket) to your registered address, within 3 business days of payment.
Taxes & duties: for EU orders up to EUR 150, VAT is collected at checkout and we pay the import duty and customs fees ourselves – nothing to pay on delivery. UK orders up to GBP 135: VAT is collected at checkout. Other orders may owe import tax on delivery. We never under-declare values or mark items as gifts.
Returns follow Catawiki's Seller Terms. Questions are welcome before bidding.
