Hi there, I just joined the group so apologies for picking up on an old thread, however... I have 2 Aires Lens, the above-mentioned Tele Photo 90mm and the Wide-Attachment 36mm, still in their leather cases. My father had a knack for buying products which were quite short-lived, but I couldn't let go of these lenses when they came into my possession, and have been hunting for the correct Aires Camera to try and buy. Thank goodness you have helped solve the mystery. I am in Australia and have not come across any cameras on sale here, have tried bidding for US options, however a bit nervous to purchase sight unseen and I also get hit with the customs duty - could be an expensive white elephant.
On other forums I have read that the shutter tends to die on the Aires, but not sure if that's just the rangefinder.
Any feedback on that? Thanks in advance. It may determine if I continue to try to buy one, or just sell these lenses.
A secondary question: would these screw on lenses fit any other model of camera out there, which may be easier to procure.
