Hey Kids,

Wanna play lens technician? Here's the autocollimator that's found in almost every rental house and lens repair shoppe.
Looks like a clean unit. The basic optical block use to sell for more than the asking price here. The 275mm and 130mm objectives that come with it are good for most focal length lenses but it would be easier to check the very wide angle lenses if you also had the 60mm one. If you get this, contact me and I can tell you how to check it for proper function.

Chuck

Chuck's eBay thread, gotta love it.

That Sachler looks good, is that kind of the going rate or is that a bargain for what it is? Seems quite cheap for the weight it holds, as long as it's in decent working order.
