Certified: Tested & inspected with special tools and machinery, found to be working correctly (or unused in original packaging). Any flaws present will be noted and will not affect typical use.

The camera is in good working condition. The lens elements have become yellow. This will not affect image quality significantly. The filter threads on the lens are dented. Filters still screw on but not very well. The light meter is accurate with an MR9 adapter. Includes newly-installed light seals.
