Konvas

I am amazed at the prices of konvas cameras. A 35mm camera for under a thousand dollars? This just cannot be true. Can it? I, like most filmmakers, would love to shoot on 35mm but just cant afford the cost. But when I looked on Ebay for 35mm cameras, I was astounded to find that a 35mm konvas camera was less expensive than most 16mm cameras, besides bolex of course. But can this be real? Are these cameras good for anything, if there price is so low? I am a neophyte, as most of you know, but the idea of being able to shoot on my dream format is so apealing. I am going to start researching this on mu own starting right now, but you friendly people here at indietalk may have som input to share. I hope I don't bother you too much.
