Marc or Carlos,
My SL 66 has the number 2909661
The Planar is No. 4689756.
Any idea when it was produced?
The instruction manual says E 0168 on the back so would be from
January 1968. Interestingly enough the manual included an original
sales receipt of this camera from "Ashraf & Co. Ltd. - Kuwait". The
handwritten date says 23/9 but no year. Price was 198,000, whatever
the currency was there at the time (?).
A formidable machine. I would not handhold an SL66 below 1/30 sec.
Jan
