Anyone have a good, working Sankyo CME 1100 for sale?

[Muckymuck]

I had one of these long ago in my slightly poorer days and flogged it to raise a few bob.

Anyone have one (that works, is in reasonably good nick and has a clean lens) they want to sell?

PM me, I'm UK-based.

Thanks!

Oops - just realised there's a classifieds section for this kind of request.

Moderators - please feel free to move this if required.

I don't have one but being that you already did, I was wondering if you can tell me if these have a ratcheting claw or a retracting claw?

[Muckymuck]

I've no idea unfortunately - if you explain the difference, I might be able to help. Forgive my ignorance!

[slashmaster]

The ratcheting type of claw is just a claw that moves up and down (ratcheting) against the sprocket holes. A retracting claw is just like on any projector, it retracts in on the up stroke and pokes back out into the sprocket holes on the down stroke. It gives better registration and is on more expensive cameras but I don't know which ones.

Still looking, in case anyone's keen to off load theirs...

I have one...but you being in the UK makes it rather difficult...or shall we say, expensive.

[Muckymuck]

How expensive is "expensive"? Please PM me if you have a proposal. I've always loved your website, by the way!
