[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]I have a beautiful Canon L-1 body for sale. It's a chrome LTM body with ratcheted rapid advance lever, built in rapid rewind crank, hinged back, viewfinder frames for 35/50/135. Rangefinder magnified at max setting to almost the same size as focusing spot. Very accurate. Very bright, accurate RF patch. One slight impression above the VF window, a small peck below the advance lever on the back. Pressure plate shows no wear, interior very clean. Manufactured in 1957 only with a production of fewer than 8000. I guess it's considered collectible, but it's also a great user. Rangefinder is spot on at 1.4 close up. see << http://www.cameraquest.com/crfl1bl.htm >> Lens is last version, chrome w/black paint focus ring, considered as good as Summilux, comes w/B&W UV filter. Only wear is slight paint wear on focus ring. Glass perfect. Body, $500.00. Lens $450.00. Both $900.00USD plus shipping/ins. I can use paypal. Contact me offlist for additional info and or .jpg. Thanks for looking. Scott Stewart - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
