Leica Leitz Minolta CL Rangefinder Film Camera!
Note - All Leica M-mount lenses will be 15% off when purchased alongside this camera! The Voigtländer 40mm 1.2 Nokton would be the best pairing!
Features:
Extremely compact build, comparable to that of early rangefinder point-and-shoots, such as the Minolta 7 series cameras, ideal for small, lightweight setups (only 365 grams!)
0.6x magnification viewfinder, with framelines for 40mm, 50mm, and 90mm lenses, with the full rangefinder being ideal for framing with 35mm lenses
Extremely versatile Leica M lens mount, making this camera compatible with many of the best lenses ever made!
Amazing German design, paired with Japanese build quality, makes this an amazing mechanical camera to handle & use
Shutter speeds from 1/1000th - ½ Seconds, plus bulb, show in the viewfinder to remove the need to check the top plate before shooting
Overall Condition - The camera is in great condition overall. Mechanically, everything works perfectly - all functions are smooth, the rangefinder and viewfinder are clear & bright, and calibrated correctly. The only issue is that the meter works intermittently, and therefore we are selling this as though the meter isn’t functional… All else is perfect regardless. Cosmetically, the camera is in good condition, though with some signs of use. There is some slight paint loss on the corners of the camera, and some light scratching on the rest of the body, though these aren’t dents, so no worries ergonomically. The plastic end on the winding lever also looks slightly strange, though this has no effect whatsoever on the feel of it. Please see photos for further detail :)
