May / June 2011 Newsletter

Dear Photographer,

After many years of supplying professional photographers with their equipment needs, it is with some fascination that we have come to recognise the varying trends taking place within the industry at any given time. This can range from consistent demand for new high end equipment, to requests for more affordable niche products at the lower end. At other times, we may have requests to seek out some of the more desirable collectors items or just to assist with general photographic support and advice.  At the moment the focus seems to be on the need for good quality and traditional Pre-Owned Equipment. Hence, I am pleased to inform you that our list of Pre-Owned Equipment has grown and showcases a number of highlights. Do have a look at the list below for yourself and in the meantime, here is a sneak preview of some of our favourites.

  • A rare Voigtlander Bessa 100 Year Anniversary Edition camera with a 15mm Aspherical lens, in a collector’s presentation wooden box, is available at only R4500.
  • A choice of two Mamiya RB67 kits including lenses and accessories are on offer at under R3000 per kit.
  • A Metz 76MZ-5 Digital flash including a Canon control unit and extra batteries is available for those requiring a powerful, portable flash.
  • An ultra-wide 37mm lens for Mamiya RB has just come into stock and is on offer at R4950.
  • A clean Nikon F100 camera body has been priced at only R1900.

 The full Pre-Owned Equipment List is as follows:
