Dangit. No big, I didn't wanna spend that much, just curious.

Was this used as a prop??

Luke's macrobinoculars

Really? Not that I'm doubting you- but I never would have guessed.

That was the first thing that came to mind.... But I still don't see it.

The viewfinder and two lenses are used on the prop. The body of the prop is a Eumig 8mm camera.

PS- I have a spare camera (no lens) and a pair of resin lenses if anyone's looking for parts.

spotted this last week, the auction finished at 3 am for me in the UK so I passed this time.

 

[The Hopkinator]

Hmmmmmmm.....

 

[Dann]

Hmmm???

 

[Clutch]

This is why my macros will never be all original parts.

 

[Dann]

Because of the price of the cameras with the correct lenses?

If I spent that much on the camera, I'd probably keep it as a working camera! :lol

 

[Dexvader]

Hmmmm?

 

[Dexvader]

OK, I will admit that it was me. I also just scored this little gem off the bay.

 

[Clutch]

I hate you.

 

[Dann]

Yeah, I bid on that one, too. Too rich for my blood.

 

[Dexvader]

All im needing is the lens plate and side black box.

Clutch, give me a shout and bring your binocs over.

 

[Clutch]

You will have a seriously nice replica when you are finished. Here's that tutorial btw.

Looks good so far, but I think your Bantha picture is upside down.
