Description from the seller

The classic Voigtländer Vitessa L rangefinder camera, featuring the highly regarded Ultron 50mm f/2 lens. Comes with the original camera case and strap, the packaging (anniversary edition to mark the 200-year anniversary) and the warranty card.

The camera shows a few minor faults, including: a missing screw on the light-meter cover, and loose upholstery and a loose plate from the film counter on the left side (this is temporarily secured with tape, but new upholstery is easy to purchase and install). There are some scratches on the glass of the lens (this does not affect normal shooting) and, as expected, the light meter does not work. Otherwise the camera operates properly: the rangefinder is generally accurate, the shutter speeds produce correct exposure, and there is no light leakage. An excellent choice, both for the collector and for practical use.
