LEICA M1 CAMERA RANGEFINDER GERMANY YEAR 1961 EXCELLENT!!
knut_schwinzer replied to 10994031's topic in Member Classified Ads
This is the only M viewfinder camera by omission of the rangefinder itself. Good luck anyway! -
Leica MDa and Voigtländer 15mm f4.5 + finder
knut_schwinzer replied to knut_schwinzer's topic in Member Classified Ads
Interesting fact for collectors might be that the hinged M4-type rewind was first introduced with this model, M4 came out in 1967, if I got that right: Serial Numbers Leica Cameras - Leica Wiki (English) -
Nice superwide set: Very clean body from the first batch 1966, but long times (1s-1/15) sticky, hence the price. Lens without scratches or mould, generic LTM to M adapter, original Voigt finder, original front cap. I am in Spain. Ich spreche auch Deutsch. También hablo Español. I would like to have €650,- net to me.

My price is 890€, only the Summaron 1754512!

I have too many sweet Summarons... So, this one has to go! Original screwmount Summaron. Very nice condition, see pics. Focus and aperture perfect. Clean glass, minimal dust, works perfectly. I am in Spain. Insured shipping at cost. Spreche auch Deutsch. También hablo Español. Good light!!! Knut

M3 Not Firing Flash Below 1/50
knut_schwinzer replied to craig_shearman1's topic in Leica and Rangefinders
<p>The flash should fire at any shutter speed, but from 1/60 upwards you would get increasingly wide black areas in your� negs as the second curtain starts its travelling before the first curtain opened completely. AFAIK there is no prevention of firing the flash at higher speeds present in M film cameras.</p> -
<p>SB 28 was my choice, already lying around. Whenever possible, I use flash's A-mode and bounce. Reliable, but a bit topheavy, like all hot shoe mounted flashes on a M.</p>

21mm viewfinder. Which one?
knut_schwinzer replied to jamie_robertson2's topic in Leica and Rangefinders
<p>Jamie, I have and have had different 21mm finders. I still like best the metal lyra shaped Leitz finder. It has rounded brightlines. I once broke one when it fell onto concrete ground (shattered glas inside). The newer plastic ones might resist impacts better, and have a somewhat helpful lock. The Zeiss is certainly the best in clarity, but has a brightline which includes the near parallax, only marked by two little stripes, which suggest a FOV of a 43mm on Mamiya 7 (6x7). Also, in the Zeiss the scene is of higher magnification (bigger). To see the complete brightlines on all of them your eye must be dead centered, which is a good thing to achieve framing precision, as far as this goes with an external VF.<br> Jochen, I think you mean Kobalux/Avenon. They are huge like they were meant for a Nikonos. And probably collectibles.</p> -
