Description

The listing, Canon AS-6 Underwater Camera has ended.

Up for bis is a Canon AS-6 Underwater Camera. It uses all brands of 35mm film; I recommend using a 400 ASA film (this works better in lower light).

This is a fully automatic, compact and lightweight underwater camera. The camera can withstand underwater depths down to 10 meters (33 ft.). Ideal for snorkeling and near-shore photography, without worrying about damage from the water!

It features a 35mm f/4.5 lens, has an electronically-controlled aperture and automatic film transport. No quirky controls required to wind the film - it does so automatically after each shot!

This is a nice camera in very good condition. If you use it in saltwater, be sure to give it a thorough rinse in fresh water BEFORE opening. After removing the film, lightly lubricate the seals. You can use Vaseline, or spray some WD-40 onto a Q-Tip, then wipe the seals with the tip. No other lubrication is required.

It requires 2 "AA" batteries for operation. ALWAYS remove the batteries after use, and lubricate the battery compartment seal as well.

Summer's here, so get those shots on the water! Don't worry about ruining an expensive digital camera - 35mm film is STILL a very good choice for keeping memories of your vacations and exploits on the water!

S/H: $10.70 via USPS Priority Mail Flat Rate Medium Box, or Parcel Post, actual cost, to your zip code. Free shipping if the bid passes 2500! Not bad for an UNDERWATER camera!

Payment: Paypal is preferred. I also accept USPS Money Orders. No other methods or types of M.O.s accepted.

So, if bids go over 2500 it's free shipping? (Just making sure I read it correctly.)

Wow. The bid should be a LOT higher! Think about it: RENT IT OUT WHEN NOT USING IT!!! How many friends go to the beach for a week, while you're stuck at work? Rent it to them for $20-25! Do that enough and it could PAY FOR A VACATION!!

Bid!

I commend you on your description. I only wish others would do the same. I do have one question....you state that it's a nice camera in good condition, but you don't say if it actually works properly or not. Important little detail. Just checking to be sure. Thanks

I have not taken it into the water, but it functions normally otherwise; the shutter fires, the flash fires, etc. The O-ring in intact and supple, so I don't expect any leaks (just as long as you don't exceed the rated depth). I'm confident it will work as advertised. Canon makes quality cameras, and this one is no different.
