Leica IIf
A rangefinder camera with interchangeable lenses, distinguished by the absence of a slow speed dial.
Overview
The Leica IIf is a rangefinder camera with interchangeable lenses, made by Leitz. It looks a lot like the IIIf, which came out two years earlier, but it leaves off the slow speed dial. That is the one real difference in the controls. Two eye lenses sit at the rear, one for viewing and one for focusing, and film advance is by lever. The Leica Society UK listed one for £199 in 2018.
