Basic and never fails.The viewfinder and prism are all clear with no signs of desilvering. However the screen has a few tiny spots that will not affect the pictures.Mirror, bumper and seals are in good shape and not degrading ( most likely they were serviced at some time).The Lens is in excellent condition for its age, no fungus and very clean. very precise focusing ring and it functions perfectly.There are some scuff marks on top and bottom plate.We are also adding at no charge a vintage old ( pre-owned) factory thin strap.
