Another copy of ST801 - this one in gorgeous black finish. Probably the most popular and highly rated camera in Fujica ST series, this Fujica ST801 is in fully functional and in excellent cosmetic condition. Revolutionary at the time, LED meter display in the viewfinder and a full range of mechanical shutter speeds. This camera features a 42mm screw lens mount, perfect for Takumars and other manual focus lenses. Fujica ST series are well known for robust operation and a very "dark" (well light-proofed) mirror box, which helps with contrast. Full user manual can be found at Butkus.org.

FUNCTION

Shutter, meter, film transport and timer all work as designed (accuracy of the meter has not been verified with film). Brand new light seals and mirror guard were installed ($25 value). Body comes with a rare viewfinder cup.
 

COSMETICS

EXC, no major dents or scratches. Minor brassing near the strap-lugs. Focusing screen and viewfinder are pristine. Original leatherette is in excellent condition.
