I have for sale a truly rare and extremely useful piece of kit.

The Copipod is a must if you need to photograph documents or small objects and keep the film plane or sensor parallel to the subject. Not only is it useful, it would be a great addition to any Pentax collection; superbly engineered it comes in its original case. I'd be describing it as brand new/mint if it weren't for some faint rubbing marks inside the lens mount/hood component. My other one isn't in quite such good condition because I use it quite often and it has MOD markings on it which I quite like.

It fits lenses with a 49mm filter thread but will, of course, accomodate others via step up or down rings (not supplied). The telescopic legs have graduated markings to ensure that everything is level and the case, legs and the main frame are mint. The lens mount is removed by loosening a screw and is then attached to the lens like a filter.

I'm looking for £25 + P&P of £4.00

FFordes are currently selling one for £35.00

Arrived safe and sound, very good condition. I think this will be very useful for all those little copy jobs.
Thanks for That Ken.
