AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller


PLEASE READ
Because my cameras and lenses are collectors items to me and I never used them with a film, I mark the cameras as “not tested” and sell them as collectors items.
However, functions such as shutter, rangefinder, light meter, mirror, etc. are checked for operation (not for accuracy) and lenses are judged by eye.
From the description and test results can often be concluded whether the object could function properly, but I cannot give any guarantee on this.

DESCRIPTION
Interesting 1940 wartime Leica IIIc. This Leica camera has a "N-L" inscription, which means, that it was delivererd to ODIN (Leica distributor) in the Netherlands.
Rare example and cosmetically in fair condition, working, but one of the curtains has some damage.
