From the famous movie, "MOGAMBO", with Clark Gable,
Ava Gardner, Grace Kelly, some pictures showing a Leica TM !

A VERY EARLY LEICA, PLEASE, READ !


Leica IA # 3684 (1926), with the early mushroom", a VERY early veteran
Leica, with proper early fittings as: 4 screws on top border, low-profile advancing knob,
the rare "feathered" arrows on both knobs, and it is even one of the rare "close focus" ones,
fitted with  the special Elmar 50/3.5 that may be  focused at at 1.5 feet !  Seem to me that I never
had a so low # Leica IA close focus. VERY early vulkan pattern, too, BUT the opening key on the
baseplate is a normal one, without a small black paint bar. Although not pictured, it comes with the
proper, early flat Leica cap in black painted brass. Works well, A clean EX+/EX++,  € 3.860


Leica IA, (1928), # 10094, with the "dimpled mushroom", an early veteran
Leica, with proper early fittings as: 4 screws on top border, small engravings on
the Elmar lens front ring, complete and never broken VERY early vulkan pattern, low
profile winding-advancing knob, proper early metal cap. Works well, A clean EX+,  € 1.980


Leica IA, (1928), # 14415, with the "dimpled mushroom", with proper early fittings
as: 4 screws on top border, small engravings on the Elmar lens front ring, complete and
never broken proper vulkan, proper early metal cap. Quite interesting and collectible, being
one of the rare Leica IA  carring the  special "silver" engravings,  on the baseplate, that say:
"Lutz, Fernando y Cia, Buenos Aires".  Works well, and smoothly ! A clean EX+,  € 2.280

Leica IA, (1927), # 5250,  still a very early Leica with the proper not
dimpled"mushroom" shooting button, small lens engravings, and more.
The shutter works reliably, with a delicious "sound" ! EX+,  € 2.860


Leica IA, (1927), # 7833, 


Unique Leica IB "Compur" prototype, with a never seen kind of strange detacheable but
horizontal FODIS-like rangefinder, all is working, different counter, strap lugs, ex,  P.O.A.

 IIID # 367190 in near mint, original and genuine conditions, CLICK  more pictures...


IIIC post WWII, # 512378, well... this one would be a MINT camera,
if not  for the well  known and almost  fatal small loss on chrome,
that occur on most similar cameras made in the years 1946/1950.
Despite  some chrome  loss, visible in  my pictures, this is still
a very cleam camera ! Vulkan, shutter, RF, perfect ! € 360

IIF rd # 651290

IIIG early, # 828243 (Wetzlar, 1956) in near mint, very clean conditions. comes with
"his" also very nice Summicron 50/2 collapsible lens # 1396758 (Wetzlar, 1956 too...)
which glasses, unlike for MOST similar Summicron lenses, are nearly perfect, with
only very few wipe marks. All aperture leaves are clean and dry, sweetly clicking
at every full stop value. The IIIG body seem like new at a 1st glance, and I rated
it as "near mint" only for some really microscopic, minimal more shining specks
on the top plate, almost unnoticeable without a good magnifier. Only the baseplate,
that may be changed, have two or three small darker spots on chrome, then I rate it
as ex++/near mint. All knobs are MINT, the vulkan covering is all complete, and never
broken or repaired, both curtains are still nice, the rangefinder is clean and contrasty, the
viewfinder is bright, clean, not "jellowish", Film spool and mint lens cap included, RESERVED

IIIG # 847036, body cap, near mint, € 1.180

IIIG # 868827 near mint

IIIG # 981977, late #, near mint

A small item that represents one of the "secrets" of many professional photographers...
A new very special product MADE and offered by Leicatime !
Please, look attentively... I am introducing the NEW two "soft shutter releases"
buttons for Leica and other cameras, 16 mm diameter for your finger's comfort.
For Bessas I am making them smaller ! I know, several are offered around.
But, those two models are made in SOLID STAINLESS STEEL !
TWO models: "Concave" and "Convex" - € 12 each, choose yours !
NOW, you'll find the Leicatime website address engraved on their bottom.
I suggest you to purchase it/them along with a case, avoiding to pay the shipping
cost for the soft release, alone ! I already placed one in EACH of my own cameras... :-)

Now, also... in Black Paint !
However, I can't guarantee the paint duration...
 

I thought to post a feedback of a kind buyer, about this item(s) !  :-)

Wonderful service. Soft release is well made. You won't believe the difference!

Buyer   malewitsch ( 40)

Finally, I am offering the SS MiniConvex for your RF Bessa cameras ! A few (nice) prototipes are available, ready, Eur 12 each
