The following items are for sale:

Bessa L complete with Voigtlander Snapshot-Skopar 25 mm/4, round lens hood,
front and rear lens cap, and 25mm viewfinder also from Voigtlander. Also
included are camera body cap, strap and instructions. Everything is like
new, and comes in the box. Since I have shot 5 films through this camera I
can guarantee that everything is in a perfect working condition. Actually
the camera is branded as Cosina 107-SW, because at first Cosina did not have
the right to use Voigtlander name in all countries, but this is the same
camera as Voigtlander Bessa L, just with a different tag on it. I purchased
it from Stephen Gandy - Cameraquest.) 

Price: $295 (includes air mail shipping anywhere in the world)

- ------

Leica I (model A) serial number 47789. The camera comes with a yellow filter
(for enhanced contrast), FOKIN rangefinder (this is the one with the big
wheel) and camera case. The camera is in good working condition - I have
shot one negative film with it recently and was OK - this means the curtains
are OK, the lens is OK (since it was protected by the filter, it is without
scratches!), shutter speeds sound OK. If you plan on using it, you will have
to lubricate it - it seems to me that the shutter is a little bit dry.
Cosmetically the camera shows usage marks - as most of the Leica I (A) do.
The vulcanite is complete, however there is a crack in it. The rangefinder
works OK - the image is contrasty. This is your rare chance to get a
legendary camera and a rangefinder.

Price: $695 (includes air mail shipping anywhere in the world)

- -------

Leica M3 single stroke - serial number over 1 mio. Works properly. Shutter
speeds are OK, the rangefinder is spot on and contrasty. The vulcanite is
complete. Some minor scratches on top from the Leica Meter.

Price: $695 (includes air mail shipping anywhere in the world)

- ------

Dual Range Summicron 50mm/2 with eyes. The lens works OK, but has cleaning
marks on the front element (this results in slightly lower contrast), and
the cam that selects the frames, has been cut away (the lens still mounts
firmly on the camera, but the 50mm frames are not selected. On the M3 I'm
selling this creates no problem, since you see 135mm and 50mm frames when
you mount the lens on the camera). The eyes are in perfect condition and
come in a protective leather case.

Price: $345 (includes air mail shipping anywhere in the world)

- ----

If you want both Leica M3 and DR Summicron, I can offer you both for $999
(includes air mail shipping anywhere in the world) and you get a working
Leica Meter MR for free.


If you want photos, please let me know.
