It's a nice little camera. That with a 50/3.5 Elmar can slide right into your jeans pocket. Film loading is the biggest pain with the LTM bodies. I downloaded a film cutting templet and sized the jpg so the film sprockets matched up to a piece of film. I cut every leader to size now. No problem. I'll give you the url as soon as I put it in my gallery. I could never find a manual for the IIIc on line, only the IIIf. They are the same body except the IIIf has flash sync and a self timer on the later bodies. For Christmas my son bought me a Hove collectors book, "Instructions for the use of the Leica camera Models c, f &g" It's an actual duplication of the original 3 manuals done better then the originals. I have 4 very nice LTM lenses which I use with the VIOOH finder. That I have the downloaded manual for.
