Leica IIIf black paint 'Swedish Army' *

Only 100 cameras with special black painted Elmar 3.5/5cm were manufactured for the Swedish military in 1956, they were winterised to enable them to function in arctic conditions. The offered camera is in 100% original, never restored condition, with beautiful patina around the edges, with matching black Elmar 3.5/5cm no.1427036. 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.
