Fujifilm Fuji GW 690 II

The Fuji GW 690 II is a medium format rangefinder camera that produces 6x9cm negatives on 120 roll film. It was part of Fujifilm's GW series of fixed-lens professional rangefinders aimed at portrait, landscape and wedding photographers who wanted large negatives in a relatively portable body.

The fixed lens shutter is the main wear point on these cameras, so listen for accurate speeds and check for sluggish slow speeds; the rangefinder patch can also dim with age. Inspect the film advance and frame counter, the bellows-free lens barrel for impact damage, and the leatherette for lifting. Service availability is more limited than for SLRs, so a recent CLA adds to the price a buyer is willing to pay.
