Description: Here's a a Nice Voigtlander VITO III rangefinder camera from 1950 with a 50mm f/2 Ultron lens in a Synchro Compur Shutter, plus it's leather case and an additional leather case that holds a UV and a Yellow Filter and Lens Hood. Plus there's an accessory shoe that clips on top, and that is the reason for the only serious cosmetic flaw. A nice Outfit--- a Heckuva Nice Bundle at a bargain price! (there's about $100 worth of accessories included---- and they're Not Aftermarket items.) It's in Excellent condition cosmetically---- just very light general wear and tear and some dirt in the nooks. No dents or dings, BUT there are a bunch of little scratches on the front and back of the top where that little shoe attaches--- rather unfortunate, but I guess it was a user not a collectible piece back in the day. The rest is in fine shape all around. The lens has very little wear--- just a little pick mark on the front element and a few specs of dust inside--- otherwise very clear! Mechanically---- it's also in quite nice condition. The shutter fires at all speeds---- except the 1, 1/2 and 1/5 second are quite a bit slower--- the 1/10 is slightly slower but the others sound and look good. But no guarantees on how accurate they all are, but they look/sound good to my ear and maybe they'll get better with use. It winds smoothly and the Aperture works fine and there is No oil on the blades. The rangefinder works great--- a Very Distinct split-image and the viewfinder is otherwise Very Clear. So it can still be a Great User---- the Ultron Lens is a Fabulous hunk of glass. Inside it's also clean with a little corrosion on the rails above and below the bellows opening--- but it feels smooth so it shouldn't be an issue. The two filters are Clean & Clear and the hood slips on easily with a few nicks here and there. So it's Not Mint--- but it's still pretty nice and is working very well, but I may have missed something. That's all I know and can tell you. What you see is what you'll get--- the actual item for sale is pictured.... Camera, two Filters & Hood, Accessory Shoe and Leather Case. Please examine the photos. Continental US Shipping will be $11.50. It will be packed well and Safe, shipped the next business day after purchase. International Shipping via the ebay program. PLEASE READ THIS--- By Buying you Agree that: I am not Amazon or a professional Camera Store seller--- just a pragmatic collector/shooter selling some Used items. I'm not here trying to rip anybody off or sneak one past you. But that said... I'm not into having things go back and forth based on opinion, or risk "part swapping." So I'm sorry, I can't sell this item on Approval, it's being sold As Is, No Warranty, No Buyers Remorse, No Try-outs, No Returns---- sold as an OLD Camera collectible, that's Not Perfect and has some flaws. I've been a photographer for 35+ years and I know how cameras work and what to look for. But I can't "Bench Test" every thing to factory specs and unless it's Brand New... I can't guarantee that every single aspect may be Perfect... especially when it's a 75+ year old item! This is an Old, Used Camera and any significant defects that I know of are either pictured or described to the best of my knowledge. I try to be detailed and truthful but I can't describe every millimeter of it, so there may be a nick or blemish or a few specs of dust that I failed to mention... but they would hardly diminish it... unless you expect everything to be like new and 100% Perfect when it was said not to be. What you see is what you'll get and I package my items well, so it arrives in the same condition as shown.
