[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]To finance some other goodies, I have the following items for sale: Leica M3, single-stroke, serial no. 985xxx. Not a collector's item, it has been used (but not abused) by me and previous owners. No big dings or scratches, just the normal signs of use you would expect of a camera made in 1959. However, the rangefinder and the whole viewing system are clean and clear, the shutter speeds were checked by a Leica tech earlier this year and pronounced spot-on, and the shutter release is silky-smooth as always. I have the Quick Load kit installed in the camera but will also enclose the original spool that came with the camera. I will also throw in the original Leica leather eveready case for the M3. Finally, I should mention that I have put a film memo holder on the back, which I will leave on. If the buyer does not like it, than s/he can remove it easily. Price: 900 Euro including air mail shipping in Europe and North America, surface shipping elsewhere. Leica 50mm Summicron collapsible, chrome, serial no. 1318xxx. I use it on my Leica M3 with good results, but have decided to go back to having just one 50mm lens (I already have the Summilux). For a lens this age, it is in unusually good condition (I bought it recently from an LHSA member, and we know most of those guys baby their equipment). Price: 400 Euro or equivalent, including air mail shipping in Europe or North America, surface shipping elsewhere. I will sell the M3 and the lens separately as described above, or you can take both for 1200 Euro. OTHER ITEMS: Sekonic Twinmate L-208 light meter. This is an extremely compact meter, which can be used in a meterless camera's hot shoe (that is how I use it on the M3). It provides both reflected and incident metering.

My meter is like new, and I am asking 100 Euro. Beige Billingham 225 bag with all inserts and two end pockets. The bag is in very good condition, no tears, just a bit of visible wear, but really minimal. A new bag retails for $278 at B&H: http://www03.bhphotovideo.com/default.sph/FrameWork.class?FNC=ProductActivator__Aproductlist_html___4908___BI225K___REG___CatID=4359___SID=EE8124F7160 And the two Delta pockets I am including cost $46 each at B&H: http://www03.bhphotovideo.com/default.sph/FrameWork.class?FNC=ProductActivator__Aproductlist_html___157705___BIDEP225K___REG___CatID=4357___SID=EE8124F7160 I am asking 250 Euro or equivalent for the combo, with air mail shipping in Europe or surface shipping elsewhere included. Lager's "Leica: An Illustrated History". Mint in every way. I have the first two volumes (cameras and lenses). 90 Euro each or 170 Euro for both, surface shipping included. With all items, I will ship from Germany if the buyer is in the EU to eliminate VAT and customs issues. In addition to the above, I have some odds and ends for sale, please inquire about price or make offer: - - 67mm B&W light red (25) filter - - original Leicaflex SL leather eveready case, almost mint condition. Please contact me off-list if interested.
