AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Many Leica enthusiasts know it: most C cameras from just after World War II have poor chrome work and most show serious oxidation. Not so with the set offered here, consisting of:

+ a Leica IC body with serial number 458794 from the year 1950
+ a Leitz Elmar 5 cm f3.5 lens with number 650080 and lens cap
+ a Leitz FISON hood for the Elmar
+ a Leitz VOOLA diaphragm cam
+ a Leitz SBOOI 5 cm viewfinder

Technically the set is in excellent condition. The shutter runs smoothly with good cloth blinds. The lens is clear with minimal dust ingress and minimal marks on the front element. Focus and diaphragm (no oil on the blades) move smoothly. The finder is clear with intact glass.

Externally the set is in excellent condition. No dents or impact damage. The chrome on the camera is—unlike many peers—free from oxidation. The vulcanite is complete and unbroken. The knobs and lugs are very neat.

In short, a beautiful, complete and well-kept set for the discerning Leica enthusiast.

PM. Not tested with film

WE WILL SHIP VIA UPS OUT OF NL AND DO NOT USE ANY CHEAP CARRIER LIKE OTHER SELLERS DO.
