“This inspection sheet is provided as an honest observational guide to help potential buyers better understand the item’s visible condition and the basic testing carried out prior to listing.

Testing is limited to the functions demonstrated within the listing photographs and/or video. Unless specifically stated otherwise, cameras are not fully film tested and testing consists primarily of basic dry firing and visual inspection only. Not every feature, function, speed, or operational aspect may be checked.

The purpose of this inspection is not to certify full functionality, but to document the observable behaviour of the camera during the limited testing performed. Any faults, inconsistencies, damage, or abnormal behaviour noticed during inspection will be highlighted where possible within the listing description, inspection sheet, photographs, or video.

Buyers should carefully review all photographs and video footage provided, as these form an important part of the item description and allow buyers to make their own assessment prior to purchase.

As with all vintage cameras, age-related wear, deteriorated light seals, stiffness, inaccuracies, or servicing requirements may be present and may only become apparent during prolonged use or film testing. Some maintenance, adjustment, or servicing may therefore be required.

By purchasing the item, the buyer acknowledges that the camera is vintage equipment sold on the basis of the limited testing demonstrated and accepts the item in its current used condition unless otherwise stated.”
