ARGUS C-FOUR (c. 1951) coupled rangefinder camera. Works

Description

(Please read entirely)… This is a RF Argus c-four camera from the 50’s in great cosmetic condition, great collector’s item. Camera works but will require a *CLA’d if considering camera for accuracy or serious work. This is one of the easiest to maintain.

Specs: 135 (35mm) film type camera with Argus Coated Cintar 50mm f/2.8 lens and coupled rangefinder.

What we performed… Cleaned all around. not *CLA’d.
We concluded that camera is in great cosmetic condition, Lens is cristal clear, RF works good, viewfinder is clear, aperture ring turns smoothly. All shutter speeds seem consistent with exception of the 1/10 S which varies. As for the focusing the body dial has become heavy to turn proper of many of the Argus C series cameras of this vintage, however the knurled ring on the lens can also be used for focusing.

This item is considered vintage, please take a good look at the pictures and let me know if you have any questions as it is being sold “As Is” Sale will be final. Thanks for looking.

*CLA = Clean, Lubrication & Adjusting.
