Hello and thanks for reading the description!This item ships to the USA ONLY (sorry)
This is a project camera that never got its due respect from me. I really hope one of you will pick up the ball and get this one working again.The problem is the two batteries this requires. They are not made any more. There are various workarounds/fixes posted online, but I have stalled in this one for too long, so it’s someone else’s turn.I will say that when I bought it, it had enough juice i...n its ancient batteries to shoot about half a roll. But just LOOK AT IT! Doesn’t it just scream to join your collection? We’ve all seen black and chrome and any number of leathers for cameras - but faux wood?!? And although it’s current functioning is in question, it seems that batteries will “fix” it. I love Voigtlander in general and this is certainly one of the quirkiest cameras they ever made. I’ll be sad to see it go but I trust you will care for it properly.
