Zeiss Ikon Leica M-Mount 35mm Rangefinder With Zeiss 50mm F/1.5 Lens Custom Case

  
Beautiful camera and lens almost look unused. In fact, they almost are. I never got the feel for rangefinders even though I tried Leica, Zeiss, and others. I guess I was an SLR guy. And now Im a large format guy, so Im reducing my personal collection to consolidate around that format. I ran about a dozen or so rolls of film through this camera and lens combo and the image quality was about as good as you can get in 35mm film. I never got comfortable with the auto exposure and I so I always used my iPhone as a meter. Some internet gurus rave about it, but I was used to a Canon EOS 3 with the the eye control and perfect meter, so I dont know. Maybe it needs to be calibrated or something.

The first roll came out very thin (Night street photo shoots) so I didnt use it again. Besides the 50mm lens that is included, I also used a Zeiss 25mm f2.8, a Canon 35mm f/2, a Leica 35mm f3.5, an Leica 50mm f/2, and a Leica 90mm f2.8. All lenses focused and worked perfectly.

I used the included 50mm lens with an adapter on Fuji X cameras and it was my favorite 50mm lens. The perfect blend of old and new in image quality, but if your looking at this you probably already know that. The half-case is a black leather custom case from Mr.

Its beautifully made and is a lovely addition to the camera. (It probably works fine under normal conditions).
