A piece of mechanical perfection from the analog era: this Leica IIIf RD ST (Red Dial, Self Timer) combines iconic design with precision engineering. Equipped with the original Leitz Elmar 50mm f/3.5 lens, this is a classic among rangefinder cameras – beloved by collectors and photographers who appreciate the timeless look and tactile sensation of a Leica.

Key Features

  • Model: Leica IIIf Red Dial with self timer
  • Lens: Leitz Elmar 5cm f/3.5, collapsible
  • Type: 35mm rangefinder camera
  • Decade/Origin: 1950s • Germany
  • Shutter Speeds: 1s – 1/1000s + B
  • Serial Number: 691500 (circa 1954)
  • Point of Attention: missing one screw at the lens mount
  • Condition: very nice for its age, functions well, CLA recommended

The body is in exceptionally nice condition: the black vulcanite is intact, the chrome shows minimal signs of use, and all dials turn smoothly. The viewfinder is bright, the shutter speeds operate without hesitation, and the self-timer has been tested and works properly. A characteristic sound experience with every press of the shutter release underscores the well-functioning mechanics.

Note: as is often the case with vintage Leicas, one screw at the lens mount is missing. This has no noticeable impact on functionality and relates to the robust, timeless build quality that enthusiasts of analog photography rely on.

Why choose this camera? Ideal for collectors looking to add a rare and sought-after piece to their collection, and for photographers wanting to experience the distinctive look of a Leica IIIf RD ST. Use it for street photography, portraits with a classic focal length, or as a statement piece in an analog setup.
