Leica Ⅲc + FED 50mm F3.5 [Operation OK]

Thank you for looking.

This is a rare Parnack-type LEICA IIIc, manufactured in 1949 (post-war), with sharkskin leatherette.

●Camera Body
All functions have been tested and confirmed.
Shutter speeds change according to the settings. Slow shutter speeds are also functioning without issue. The 1-second setting feels slightly sticky.
The rangefinder is clear and visible.
Winding and rewinding operate smoothly.
The leatherette, known as sharkskin, is in beautiful condition with no peeling.
The shutter curtains are generally clean.
There are some pinpoint lifting and peeling spots on the chrome plating, but considering the era, the camera is in relatively good condition.

●Lens
There is some dust ingress and minor wiping marks, but the optics are clear and sharp with no fungus or haze.
Attaching to the camera, the collapsing mechanism, helicoid, and aperture blades operate smoothly.
A perfectly fitting plastic front cap is included.

This listing includes the camera body, lens, and a general-purpose plastic front cap.
Please note that this is an antique item, over 70 years old.
We ask for your understanding before considering your purchase.
