IIIF R/Dial D/A Chrome Body
The Leica IIIf was produced between 1950 and 1956 and added built-in flash synchronisation to the preceding IIId, a first for a Leica 35mm camera body. From 1950-52, the IIIf was produced with non-geometric shutter speeds and had black synchro numbers hence the name 'Black-Dial' and the second version (1953-56) is distinguished by its red lettering and flash numbers displaying modern geometric speeds which earned it the moniker of 'Red Dial'. Here we have an example of the later Red Dial version with a maximum flash sync speed of 1/50 sec. This camera also sports the later-still available self-timer (Delayed Action) available from 1954.
