Condition Report

Shutter working, in good, clean condition.

The camera seems to work as it should and the fabric focal plane shutter can be seen working in a "B" stop setting display its function the other speeds work correspondingly.

The camera seems to have very little or at least very gentle usage given the condition of the body and controls

The lens seems to be dust free and the leaf aperture works as expected.
