[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]After reading all the fantastic rave on the Leicaflex SL and also my own experience of using one, I decide to embark on the search for an SL. I located one and plan to take the plunge and buy into a Leicaflex SL system. I am looking at a chrome SL body with 3 lenses. The lenses are : 1. 35mm F2.8 serial no# 220XXXX Series 6 filters 2. 50mmF2.0 serial no# 224XXXX Series 6 filters 3.90mmF2.8 serial no# 217XXXX Series 7 filters There are no front lens cap nor filters for any of the lenses. Just 2 rear lens cap and al three lenses have the detachable lens hood. I will have a 14 day inspection period to check the camera and the lenses out. What should I be looking for in regards to possible problems and whom should I have inspect and do any repairs if necessary, on the camera? I was told that there is a slight tinge of dirt in the viewfinder. I would assume that the glass prism would require either re silvering or re cementing of the glass. What would the equivalent step-up filter size for the Series 6 and Series 7 filters? I would like to take the time to personally thank everyone here on the LUG, for sharing their vast knowledge of the Leica system.
