Serial No: 47785 Date: 1930 Body: G - VG original condition with minor paint losses Lenses: Leitz 5cm f/2.5 Hektor (785) 135mm f/4.5 Elmar (785) Optics: Hektor - G, minor fungal growth, Elmar, F-G fungal growth to peripheries Notes: The Leica model C “non standard” was the first Leica camera with interchangeable lens mount. The flange focal distance was not standardised at that time, so lenses needed to be individually configured for each camera body. The lenses were each marked with a three-digit number which repeated the last three digits of the camera serial number, for identification. This can be seen in this outfit stamped on the barrel of both 5cm Hektor and 135mm Elmar lenses. Further detail to be found on this version is the swinging viewfinder mask for the 135 mm field. This camera, an early example with serial 47xxx, has been factory converted to a standardised screw mount at some stage. The Camera outfit comes complete with FIKUS lens hood, VISOR torpedo viewfinder, FODIS rangefinder, two filters, maker's caps and outfit case. An very rare and desirable early Leica Camera Outfit
