Subject: [Leica] Leica iiif black dial flash synchronization question

Marc, your camera is a red dial model IIIf. Two things will verify this: 
the shutter has a 1/25th of a second setting and the flash sync numbers 
are in red..... thus the name "red dial".

If you had a black dial, you'd have the old shutter speed sequence 
including 1/20 & 1/30.

Flash for your camera is synced at "T" & 1 second - 1/25th with a delay 
of "0" and 1/50th with a delay of 20. Sync for "B" is a delay of 2.
