From Ken's description:
"The Camerz ZII is a single lens reflex, long roll film camera, using 100 foot rolls of 70mm film. Before digital, it was the school photographers choice, getting about 650 to 700 images per roll. The negative is about the same as the 645 format (6mm x 4.5mm or 2 1/4" x 1 5/8"). It is fully electric (120 volt) - motor drive - film advance and shutter. I used this camera for schools and proms. It is a workhorse! Camera with case and cords weights 31 pounds. This camera comes as a COMPLETE SET including padded case, film back, two shutter release cords (one never used), sync cord, power cord, film back connection cord, a 0.5 diopter (needed to do close up head and shoulders portraits), lens hood, and lens cap. The camera comes with a Computar-Camerz, 1:4.5, 75-150mm zoom lens (made in Japan). I used this camera personally and I just now plugged it in and it seems to work great. New, this camera cost me around $5,000.00.
Inquires welcome.
Reason for selling: I am a 64 year old retired professional photographer. I have been in photography since I was 20 and full-time in my portrait studio for the last twenty-seven years.
One thing I forgot to mention is the camera's ID system. A "camera card" can be inserted into a slot on top of the camera with information (such as name, grade, teacher, etc.) and that information is recorded at the bottom of the negative. The camera actually takes a photo the the information on the card for each exposure."
