Time to clean out some of my equipment to make room for new:

Ricoh Digital GR camera, leather case, battery, charger, box, manual.   
The camera has a 28mm lens with built in flash, takes 8MP images in  
RAW or smaller file sizes in JPG.  JPG's save much quicker than RAW  
files due to the camera's on-board buffer.  Uses SD cards for memory.   
The buffer was increased in the GRII model that followed this one.   
Many seem to like the B&W JPG images better on this one than the  
GRII.  Very film like B&W right from the camera.  Very compact.   
Excellent condition.   Has a hot shoe to mount an external compact  
28mm Voigtlander viewfinder (not included).  That is the best way to  
use this camera for street shooting. Price $275.

Canon G9 digital camera, 2 batteries, charger, box, manual.  The  
camera has a 35-210 zoom lens, built in flash, takes 12.1MP images in  
RAW and smaller file sizes in JPG.  Excellent condition.  Has Richard  
Franiec's custom grip installed and black ring.  The grip makes it  
easier to hold the camera.  The grip is attached with an adhesive.  It  
can be removed.  The black lens ring replaces the one supplied by  
Canon that has a big silver stripe on the front.  It was easier to  
replace the ring that use "black tape".  Great pocket camera for a  
bigger pocket.  Takes good images with a wide zoom range.  Only caveat  
is that the LCD screen image is difficult to view if you wear  
polarizing sunglasses outside.  This was changed on the G10.  Uses SD  
cards for memory. Price $ 400.

Really Right Stuff L plate for Canon G9.  Excellent condition.   
Permits you to mount the camera horizontally or vertically on a tripod  
head.  Protects the camera bottom and side.  $75.

Canon 5D SLR full frame digital camera, body cap, 2 batteries,  
charger, box, manual.  Takes 12.8MP images in RAW and smaller file  
sizes in JPG.  Excellent condition with only 5000 exposures on its  
counter.  This was my first entry into full frame digital  
photography.  Uses CF cards for memory.  No disappointments here with  
resolution or low light capability.  Leica R lenses with an adapter or  
Canon L lenses work well.   $1400.

Shipping can be negotiated to get your item to you as quickly and
