Condition Report Good condition. Body: Standard light use, showing typical minor superficial scuffs on the matte black composite casing and small bright handling rubs along the sharp edges. The battery door closes securely. Sensor/Optics:The high-magnification optical viewfinder path is remarkably bright and clear. The fixed Agnatar 40mm glass elements are clean, free from internal fungus, heavy haze, optical separation, or deep glass scratches. Mechanics/Electronics:Fully operational.
