Only 100 IIIf cameras with special black painted Elmar 3.5/5cm were manufactured for the Swedish military in 1957, they were specially modified to enable them to function in arctic conditions. The offered camera is in original, never restored condition, with a beautiful patina around the edges, with matching black Elmar 3.5/5cm no.1427139. It comes with an original black paint lens cap, red box (unnumbered) and Swedish instructions. A sidenote found in the control book in the Leica Archive confirms the batch 'Kamera no. 822901-823000 matt. schwarz'.
The IIIf black is not only one of the top collector's items but also one of the most attractive military Leica cameras ever made.
