Analog Lounge · Camera collections and equipment
Sell Ricoh SLR equipment from a collection or estate.
Analog Lounge GmbH considers Ricoh equipment from collections, estates and complete inventories for purchase across Germany, the EU and Switzerland. If you have a Ricoh film SLR with lenses or a larger camera collection, send us photos of the whole kit. We will assess whether a purchase is viable.

Systems and equipment
What equipment can you sell?
Ricoh SLR kits may contain both original and third-party lenses. You do not need to prepare a full compatibility list before contacting us. Photograph the markings and show any mounts accessible without dismantling the equipment.
Ricoh film cameras
Include full model names for cameras such as the KR-10 and other Ricoh SLRs. Make sure any additional lettering on the body is legible in your photos.
Rikenon and other lenses
For Rikenon lenses, show the focal length, maximum aperture and mount. Photograph third-party lenses with the manufacturer’s name and all additional model markings visible.
Complete camera kits
Include bags, flash units, teleconverters, extension tubes, filters and manuals. With common SLR models, the contents of the complete lot are particularly relevant.
What we need to assess your equipment
What details do we need about Ricoh equipment?
Each camera body and lens should be identifiable. That also applies to third-party lenses stored with the camera.
Camera version
Show model markings, controls and any known damage.
Lens mount
Photograph the mount and any adapters. Do not force unfamiliar combinations together.
Size of the collection
Include additional bodies, flash units and accessories. Group photos are a good starting point for a collection.
You don’t need to carry out repairs or full functional tests before getting in touch. Describe known faults and mark untested items clearly. Answers about assessments, shipping and payment.
Condition and preparation
Do not force unfamiliar mounts together
Similar-looking mounts and different electrical contacts can make mixed collections confusing. Please do not force an unfamiliar lens onto a camera. Photos are enough for an enquiry. Mention any known shutter, meter or battery-compartment faults; if you do not know the condition, simply describe the item as untested.
How it works
From your first enquiry to handover
Send photos
Send photos showing the equipment. Mention known faults and, for larger collections, where it is located.
Discuss the offer
We’ll clarify any missing details and assess the equipment as a whole. You then decide whether the offer works for you.
Agree the arrangements
We agree on shipping or an in-person handover and payment in advance. For large collections, we can discuss possible collection.
Good to know
Ricoh: frequently asked questions
Can I offer ordinary Ricoh SLRs?
Yes, particularly as part of a collection or complete kit. A single basic body may be less economical to purchase.
Do all the lenses have to be made by Ricoh?
No. Include third-party lenses, showing their actual markings and mounts.
Can I offer Ricoh together with Pentax or other brands?
Yes. Mixed collections are welcome. Please do not assume that components belong to the same system just because their mounts look similar.
How do you work out an offer?
We consider the exact versions, described condition, completeness and all the equipment included. We therefore can’t promise a price based on a brand name alone.
How is the equipment handed over?
Once we agree on a sale, we arrange shipping or an in-person handover. For larger quantities, we can discuss collection if needed. Please contact us before sending any equipment.
Your next step
Show us your equipment.
Send us photos of your collection, inherited equipment or complete camera kit. A few clear pictures and a note about the condition are enough to get started.
