Photography gear buy/sell

I have a Manfrotto 055ProB with 141RC head that is gathering dust, I've always found it to be very sturdy, not sure if it's suited to that many kg.

Manfrotto 701RC2 with the odd mark. I used it a lot when I wanted rock solid pictures, since it had a large format camera on top way back when. I’ll dig the legs out shortly as well.

Tempted, but the internet suggests it only takes up to 4kg so I should probably go for something a bit more heavy duty. But could be interested in the legs if I can find a different head to go on them. Yours sounds a bit too lightweight @pjhobs.
Though for 90% of what I do I don't actually need it to accommodate that much weight so not totally sure. I should probably do some more research.

Ahh okay. I must have loaded more than 4kg and never worried. Ignorance was bliss. I’ll have a look for the legs shortly.

It’s missing the screw-on hook for the underneath, and the rubber feet that go over the ball feet. Those rubber feet are basically the feet on the bottom of walking sticks so very easy to replace. Still got the box though! I’d be selling pretty cheap either way.

How much is pretty cheap?
Am tempted, but also watching a few complete tripods on ebay so might see how those go first.
Was also tempted by the 701RC2 but I have some idea of occasionally trying to mount camera+gimbal on a tripod, which would work out quite a bit over the weight limit and probably isn't the sort of thing I should take risks over.

Like £30? Or near offer if you want to squeeze and complain about the cost of walking stick foot inflation.

Ok, definitely interested if I can find a suitable head. Which might take me a week or two. Unless I find something better as a complete tripod. So if anyone else offers to buy in meantime, that's fine.
Are you anywhere near South London? Should probably have asked that first as postage seems like it would be a bad idea.

Not in London but GF is in Woolwich/Shooters Hill so I am around South often.

I'm selling my Mamiya 7 & 65mm f4 lens if anyone is interested. Looking to downsize to 35mm as I'm not shooting it enough unfortunately. It's in good condition, some scratches on the body, but works perfectly. Glass is in excellent condition, and with the hood and lens cap. It was purchased from Aperture a couple of years back.

I'd be open to trades too - I'm looking for an Leica M6.

Interested, but what is the price?

I'm looking for £2000

I can throw in about 15 rolls of portra 400 too.

Feel like selling any of that portra 400 seperately? :)

1500 cash if I can check it out in person? Anything more is too risky without a warranty.

I can sell you this / a lot more. Make me an offer.

I don't want to sell it before the camera, sorry :)

Cant see anything?

Can’t see what?

Would anyone be interested in a White body Pentax K-30
18-135mm Lens
16gb memory card
Battery, charger, starburst strap
Techy travel bag

You stated 'I can sell you this / a lot more', I can't see what you mean by this?

I made you an offer on your Mamiya.
I offered to sell Turkish some quantity of Portra.

Okay that makes sense, thanks for the offer but its too low for me.

I have a Fuji dl super/tiara for sale, £185 if interested. It’s the fixed focus one. Comes with a new battery if collected in Brighton otherwise I can post. Pm me if interested

For those Mamiya 7 shoppers, LCE have a near perfect in box Mamiya 7 mk1 with 65mm f4 and six month guarantee for £2000.
Would love one myself but way out of my price range.

Would anyone like a LowePro Orion Trekker Camera Backpack - Say £15? Looks like this:

NB not my photo but mine is identical - mint condition but dusty it also includes a ton more subdividers for free.

padded section will easily fit a body and some lenses and the top has a ton of room I think its a 35l bag in total.

Collection N10 but will post.
