True Auction No Reserve
In 1950 Leitz introduced what was to become the highest production screw mount Leica, the IIIF. It was essentially a IIIC with the addition of flash synchronization. Underneath the shutter speed is a ring for flash delay setting for flash bulbs. In 1952, at serial number 611000 the shutter speed progression was changed from 1/30, 1/40, 1/60 to 1/25, 1/50, 175. Earlier cameras are referred to as "Black Dial" or simply "BD" cameras, later ones are " Red Dial" or "RD" cameras. Another feature was added in 1954, the self timer. It can be readily identified by the large self timer arm on the front wind side of the camera. These are referred to as IIIF RD ST cameras, or occasionally as IIIF D/A cameras.
The condition of the body No 765046 is excellent+ (Condition 9) showing lightly signs of usage, few rub marks on the top plate, base plate is almost perfect. No dings or dents anywhere, please see the picturres for details. The inside of the body is in very nice condition with no flaws noted on the shutter curtains and a very clean pressure plate. The shutter works in all speeds, even the slow speeds sound right to my ears (maybe bit too slow) The rangfinder and veiw finder are fully working. Made in Germany. Come with the Leitz everyready leather case. Thank you for looking!
