Introducing the VNTG Tokyo Kogaku Topcon RE-2 35mm SLR camera with RE, Auto-Topcor 1;3,5 f 13,5 cm lens. This vintage camera from the 1960s was manufactured in Japan and boasts a Chrome & Black Leatherette design. It is a manual only and uses 35 mm film.
The Topcon RE-2 weighs 2 lb 10.4 oz, including strap, body, lens. Its dimensions are 5 3/4" in length, 3" in height, and 5 1/2" in width. This unit is a classic model from Topcon. Tested the light meter with fresh battery & appears to work properly. Untested (as far as running a roll of film thru). Serial number on the body is 5642186. Serial number on the lens is 7616286. Also on the lens is RE,Auto-Topcor 1:3,5 f=13,5cm Tokyo Kogaku Japan 7616286. Built in lens hood. No Cap. No fingerprints on lens. Maybe a little dust that can be brushed off with a lens brush. No apparent fogging. Note on the body: ASA knob 25 stepped to 1600. The rewind knob is missing, thus selling AS IS. The shutter fires & it has a nice sound (sounds like my Nikormat manual from the late 60's/early 70's). I suspect that you will be happy with the body cosmetically (except for the missing rewind knob, which I hope you can search online to restore the body to its former glory). Clean interior of the body. Overall will be a nice addition to your collection. Please view all pictures & ask if you want more detail. Just trying to get my cameras to the next enthusiast vintage collector.
UPDATE: I ordered fresh battery & turned the camera to "on" & the light meter bar/arm changes with aperature / speed "clicks" / changes. Thus, I assume that the light meter works. There is no guage within the viewfinder, so I assume when the bar is parallel to the bottom of the view finder, the aperature/speed is at "normal".
