CANON A1 OUTFIT |
|
The A-1 has been a long-time favorite of professional photographers,
enduring the roughest possible treatment under all climatic conditions. My
camera has had an easy life and it is in excellent condition. The rubber
sunshade which fits over the eyepiece is missing, but this can be found on eBay
or in camera shops if you really want it. I never missed it because it
gets in the way of my glasses. There is one slight worn spot (circled in the 3rd photo) where it chafed on my
soft camera bag, but the camera is otherwise perfect. All items are genuine
Canon products.

photos below to enlarge them; then press "return" to close picture)
Every photographer is interested in good quality lenses and this outfit has
it all. All lenses are original Canon products.
To start with, there is a standard 50mm which can be seen mounted on the camera
above. There is also a 50mm macro lens in perfect condition which produces extra sharp
close-ups. I used this lens together with the bellows for duplicating slides and
making regular color or black and white images from slides.
The 80-200mm zoom lens is also in pristine condition and delivers excellent
photos.
The winder is like new with no corrosion in the battery compartment
Here is the bellows and duplication attachment which I have been mentioning. If you have ever worked
with one of these, you know it is a treasure to own!
Finally. there are filters, a cable release and
other items. I even include an extra A-1 body for spare parts. It fell off the
top of a car at 60 mph and got banged up, but kept working for years until the
owner bought another and sold me this one for parts. Look at the battle scars
and you will begin to realize what a tough camera this is!
All this for $750

PROFESSIONAL MULTIMEDIA EQUIPMENT |
|
This set-up consists of 4 German-built Kodak Ektapro slide projectors with matching
Ektapro 100-200mm zoom lenses and everything you need for professional shows.
These Kodak Ektapro projectors are the newest production models in excellent condition and cost over
$1500 new without the zoom lenses. Three are 7020 Models and one is a Model 9020 with timer function.
All are programmable computerized slide projectors with Kodak 100-200mm zoom lenses in like new condition!
Each has an extra bright dual 300-watt lamp module with auto-switching in event of a burnout. These have seen
little use and of the original 8 lamps, I have only replaced one. All projectors have multi-voltage
(the pictured video projector is not part of this package).
For simple 2-projector dissolve shows, you can use the hand-held remote or, using the timer
function of the 9020, the show can run automatically.
Professional, fully automatic shows with four projectors utilize a Stumpfl 404
module and special Wings for Windows Software.
Three of the projectors are 7020 models.
The fourth projector is a 9020 model with timer function.
The SD 404 is the heart and soul of dissolve control.
All projectors and other components are in robust cases for safe transport.
Instruction manuals are included. Ektapro projectors are very robust and these have never given me
any problems, but in event of a malfunction, the Kodak Ektapro shop manual on CD is included. All
equipment has been stored in a dry place (my office).
HOW IT FUNCTIONS
With the computer program, "Wings for Windows," the producer can create fantastic multimedia shows.
You can include all kinds of fades or special optical effects, determine stand times, record, edit
and insert sound effects, stereo background music and voice comments with the same program. You see
and hear it all on the computer and make certain that the sound is exactly synced to the pictures.
After making desired changes on the computer, connect the PC to the SD-404 and do a test run on the
big screen. When everything is perfect, burn the program onto a CD. The CD recording includes the
stereo sound tracks which the audience hears plus embedded signals which drive the computerized
projectors. The Sony CD-Player is connected to the Stumpfl SD-404 with a fiber-optic cable and
serial cables connect the projectors to the SD-404. The show progresses fully automatically, or if
you prefer, you can comment live using a microphone and the mixer. Even if you use more than 320 slides
(4x80) in a show, there is no need to stop the show to change magazines.
The Ektapros also accept 140-slide trays, but I don't recommend using them. I always used glass
protected slides and the 80-slide trays.
The well-known Austrian Stumpfl Technology firm developed the hardware and software, which is used
in theme parks and theatres around the world. I have visited theatres and theme parks here in
America that used as many as 36 Ektapro projectors in their productions!
I created a show in German depicting that which is unique to America and showed
it in Austria using this set up. I also used a video projector to show video clips in certain places.
Use your own creativity to produce amazing shows! I will be happy to demonstrate the setup for anyone
interested. I will also give the buyer free instructions on setting up and running shows. A
professional outfit like this is rarely offered in North America, and it is hardly broken in!
At least 24 Ektapro magazines are included that sell on eBay for $49 each. That is
worth half the price already!
Well over $10,000 invested!
I will sell it all for $2000 plus shipping.

The EKTAPRO 9020 Projector has two additional features:

Lifetime of Ektapro Projectors:
Lifetime is measured as the moment a major defect occurs and the projector has to be sent for
service. Kodak Ektapro projectors average lifetime has been constantly improved. Starting with
450,000 cycles at launch in 1992, the newer 7020 and 9020 projectors must withstand a test
of 10 million slide changes before first major defects occur. Ten million slide changes is
125,000 full 80 slide trays. When stacked, they would be about 5 miles high!
Here is what I packed in my car for the Austrian tour! I still have 10'x10' and 10'x7'
Stumpfl quick-setup projection screens which I might consider selling, but not for less than $1000!
