  • It’s not gonna be super cheap, it’s an actual fully working camera. This is a super tiny metal Houghton Butcher / Ross Ensign. It’s got a surprisingly fast Xpres f/4,5 lens, which is clean. I bought this because of the Ross lens which is pretty uncommon and produces great results.

    There’s a huge stack of plate backs and at least 10 film adapter sheaths inside. I think there’s still my film loaded in some so not sure if I’ll open them and check at the mo.

    As I remember it the camera was worth around £100 and the rollfilm adapter was an easy £30 on its own. The film sheaths are rocking horse plop now, so I’d probably do the whole lot at £125. Pretty heavy to post though, being all metal.

    If the price is too high show me your research and make me an offer.

    It’s actually an awesome camera now I look at it again. I remember why I avoided selling it - super close focus, nice Tessar style lens, film still available (or else use 120). Need to sell before I change my mind.
