I have one, bought it off Hamish a while back, not shot it yet but it seems to give a nice sharp image.

I got a few cameras from here - be careful as its addictive

@Rob MacKillop gets some mighty fine results from his. What would you recommend Rob?

Thanks for the 'Rocky Camera' link, their price is only £13, pretty decent price ok.

I like mine - beautifully made, very compact, good lens. And that seems a good price. Here are a couple of shots I took with mine:

Actually, a link to one of my Sets would be better: http://500px.com/RobMacKillop/sets/zeiss_nettar_515_16

Just make sure the bellows are not torn...
