Leica IIIb with Elmar 5cm f/3.5
The Leica IIIb paired with the collapsible Elmar 5cm f/3.5 is a classic pre-war 35mm screw-mount rangefinder camera. Produced in the late 1930s, the IIIb is notable for its combined viewfinder and rangefinder window – a rare and refined feature in Leica’s early camera development.
This example is in good cosmetic condition, showing age-appropriate wear and light scratches on the top and bottom plates. The camera has NOT been tested, and is sold strictly as-is, without warranty.
The included Elmar lens is also untested and may show scratches, haze, or dust. Suitable for collectors, restoration, or display purposes.
