Hi I am hoping to buy an Agfa LS or LS2 for my sons to use, small and easy etc.

I think they are OK for films for occasional use besides the single sproket thing.

Its only really to run a few 400 feet digests for fun.

Can I ask please do they take a bauer Xenovaron lens please, it looks as if they do.

Also does anyone know the difference betwen the LS and the LS2 please.

Looking for a minty low use machine boxed and quiet but prefer to stay one side of £50 paypal gift plus post if anyone on here has one can go.

I know they pop up cheaply enough on ebay but be nice to get one thats 100% from someone in the know so to speak.

Many Thanks Mark.

Hi Mark, I have an Agfa LS for sale at £60. It is in its origial box and has hardly ever been used. I run a film through it just now and then to make sure the capaciters in the amp do not go down. It is a very quiet running machine and the internal mechanism was made by Bauer. It has the original microphone but no instruction manual.
I am selling this for collection only as I prefer people to see what they are buying so if you are interested please let me know via a PM. Ken Finch.

Hi Ken, thanks but I`m too far away.

But maybe someone nearer would be interested.

Best wishes Mark.

Hi Mark. I could possibly get it to Harpenden if you are really interested and going there. Ken Finch.
