My company is selling off some product photography equipment that has only seen light use and I thought someone here might be interested. All of the equipment is in excellent shape, unless otherwise noted. Though I don't know much about the equipment, the photographer who originally purchased the equipment was basically given cart blanche and I think he typically went for the best of the best (Apparently our Sinar view camera and digital back were some of the first manufactured).
Some of this stuff seems awfully high end, so any suggestions on other places to try selling it would be appreciated if no one is interested here. Feel free to pass this on to anyone you think might be interested. As these are all quite large purchases, PM me if you'd like to discuss anything over the phone.
As I'm new here and I don't want anyone to worry about the legitimacy of the offers, I'll point you to my company's website: http://www.obicreative.com/ If you call the number there and ask for Jon you'll get me.
First off, we have a Hasselblad H2 body that was used for location shots. We did very little on-location shooting and had a Sinar view camera for studio work, so the shutter should have very, very little wear. At a rough estimate, less than 1000 shots. If anyone more knowledgeable can tell me how, I'd be happy to find out the actual number.
Hasselblad H1 50mm f/3.5 Someone misthreaded the lens hood and I can't get it off. Rather than risk breaking something, I've simply left it on. Nothing is damaged, but you might need to have a repair shop get it off. (or, if you've encountered this problem before and could tell me how to fix it I'd really appreciate it). The lens itself is still in perfect shape.
This next one is a bit of a longshot, it's an Omega camera stand monopod (more like monolith). The thing must be 9 foot tall, too tall to go through a standard doorway without tipping it, and weigh a couple hundred pounds. It seems really useful for studio work as it lets you position the camera exactly with very little effort. The thing is so huge I doubt we could ship it anywhere, so this is for local pickup around Omaha, NE.
Unfortunately no, we used it with a silly expensive Sinar digital back and never had any use for a film back. I think the film backs run $600 or so from a quick googling around.
