Hi Joel,
that was a good deal. Congrats on that. However, if you add the Price for the overhaul and maintenance you will surely scratch the mark of 400 Dollars. But nontheless a nice Shot on eBay.

Hi Alex,
I don't think you will get a descent working Leicina Special with good optics for under 400 Bucks. My recomandation would be a NIZO Professional. They can be bought in good condition for around 250 Bucks. A non serviced camera will sell for ~100 Dollars. You don't need any extra lightmeter batteries as the NIZO Professional runs on 6 AA Batteries. All commonly available filmstocks can be used and you get some nice features as time laps and lap dissolve etc. Its Kind of a Super8 point and shoot workhorse.
Greetings from arround the Globe,
