About me:
I am a documentary photographer and you can see my work on my website www.jeremyrata.com. I am also a collector of photography equipment and classic cars. Many of the items I have for sale are little used as I have several different systems so all my equipment is lightly used and accurately described. My main equipment for commercial and documentary shoots in Nikon and Leica respectively which I seldom sell.
I have decided to sell all of my Canon FD equipment as I no longer use film sadly and I use predominantly Nikon and Leica digital equipment so have no use for it. All of my equipment is kept securely in my study in perfect dry conditions.
I take care of my equipment and am fastidious in maintaining and cleaning it. I do not treat any of my equipment carelessly. Whilst some items will inevitably show signs of usage which will be highlighted in the listing, all of it has been cared for as you would hope it to be and I have several items for sale please look up 'other items'. I am prepared to sell combined items with reduced postage should you want to buy other items.
The majority of the Canon Items were bought from York Cameras in London brand new as my Uncle Robin Rata owned that Canon Professional dealership until last year.
