Film cameras run the other way entirely and well-regarded mechanical models have been climbing for years.
Buying cameras & photography in Geraldton
Geraldton is a working port on an exposed stretch of coast, shipping iron ore and grain and home to a substantial rock lobster fleet. It is famously windy, which is why it draws wind and water sports people, and salt air is a constant here rather than an occasional problem.
Optics are heavy, precisely made and ruined by a single hard knock in transit, which makes posting them a genuine gamble. Collecting in person means the glass arrives in the state it was described in.
What to check in person
Check the contacts on both mounts are clean and unpitched, and mount the lens to feel whether it seats without play. On older bodies work the flash and the mode dial, and look into the battery bay for the corrosion that leaking cells leave.
Collecting it in Geraldton
It fits in a bag, so most people meet on the way to something else. A station or a high street works, and neither side needs a car.
Driving is the default and the town is compact. For a boat or trailer, agree where it can be hitched and turned before the day rather than after you arrive.
