Premium Member Matthew W. Phillips Posted June 2, 2008 Premium Member Share Posted June 2, 2008 Despite what some say about this camera, I desperately want one. I love the cost effectiveness along with the 400' mags, spare batteries, built-in crystal sync, and quietness. If you have a package with a piece of glass with it and are interested in selling, name your price and we'll see if we can close the deal! Thanks, Matthew PS- I was about 20 secs away from winning a great package on eBay before some @$$ came and outbid me with 11 secs left. :angry: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray Friera Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 I have a GSMO that I purchased a year ago as a back up. Never had the chance to use except with a dummy film. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Matthew W. Phillips Posted June 2, 2008 Author Premium Member Share Posted June 2, 2008 Does this mean you're interested in selling it? What is your asking price? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray Friera Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 I paid a little over $1700. It comes with a zeiss 100 T3, hand grip, magazine, and a battery. Make me an offer if your still interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Make me an offer if your still interested. I would love to make an offer but if you paid 1,700, I couldn't make you an offer that would be anywhere close to that ballpark.

I wasn't able to view those links. I am in Sacramento, no San Fran. I have no problem taking inquiries for a DP with a sync camera. They have to be able to get to Sac though. I am willing to pay the DP for their time (which is only a 1 day shoot) provided they aren't going to charge me union rates. If you are interested, let me know and get me a link to your work that I can view. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew Bassett Posted June 3, 2008 Share Posted June 3, 2008 Sorry my Friend I will leave your thread alone now. good luck finding a cp16r. I have been looking around for one as well and it seems the going rate is between $600-$1500 on auction sites and forums. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Bruce Taylor Posted June 4, 2008 Premium Member Share Posted June 4, 2008 Sorry my Friend I will leave your thread alone now. good luck finding a cp16r. I have been looking around for one as well and it seems the going rate is between $600-$1500 on auction sites and forums. I have a CP16R that I have been thinking about selling- I paid $1200 for it. CP16R body, very sharp 12-120 Canon macrozoom, 2 batts, 2 mags, charger, case. The seller told me it was serviced by Whitehouse just before I bought it, and I think he was telling the truth- there was a glob of grease on the mirror which would have been quite noticeable if he had actually used the camera. I have run about 800 feet through it. I shot some Ektachrome 100 and projected it -wow- beautiful. It's in my way now and I don't anticipate using it anymore. So if anyone is interested $1200 + shipping takes it. While I'm at it, I also have an Ang. 25mm f1.1 prime (mint), a Zeiss 10-100 t 3 (very good, clean glass) both in CP mount, and a somewhat rare video tap adapter (no vid camera, just plate and optics) for the factory hole on the top of the camera. Also a 2nd body, 2 mags, batt, charger, Ang 10-150. Runs fine empty, but with film in it it makes some noise, but runs @ 24fps crystal anyway. Came from UCSC. $700 + shipping.

Is the noise that it's making normal for it or is it due to a problem? I'm, very interested in this one...how much to ship to 95660?

Thanks, Matthew Hi Matthew, It's a CP16R with the t2.3 10-150mm Ang zoom. The glass looks perfect to me (particularly the front element), and the zoom, focus and iris all move smoothly. The noise is not normal, it's a problem. It's pretty quiet without film in it, but when it pulls film through it makes a noise. It could easily be something simple- I just never pulled the cover off to look inside. It's my impression that the inner workings of these old CPs are pretty basic. Like I said, it still pulled 24fps though. I think it was serviced regularly by the university and sold off as surplus, so something may have been jarred during shipping that caused the noise. I used the other CP, and had this one as a spare so I haven't shot anything with it. I can't say about the condition of the battery, may need a recell which is not a big deal. Charger is included and a copy of the original manual. I haven't weighed it so I don't know the costs to ship from LA to Sacto, though I would think UPS ground would be $30 or less. USPS or FedEx would be more. Let me know if you want further info. Bruce Taylor sales@indi35.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
