The miniature format Leica IIIf - a little sensation! MINOX has faithfully recreated this legendary camera – half a century after the appearance of the original on the market  - on a scale of 1:3 as a fully-functional miniaturisation.

Once upon a time in 1950: Two fantastic developments conquered the market. One was the Leica IIIf camera, with which the global Leitz brand launched one of the most successful cameras. With sales of 70,000, the elegant masterpiece became a classic, which made photographic history not least because of its distinctive design. The other was the legendary MINOX miniature camera, in which the inventor Walter Zapp, who is now 95 years old, combined 375 individual parts into a sensational unit. Like nothing else, the MINOX camera proves that magnificent technology can work in a minimal amount of space. As an example of miniaturisation personified, this masterpiece started its triumphant worldwide progress at the beginning of the 1950s, and now enjoys a status as one of the most unusual cameras and international popularity. In the meantime, the MINOX brand has become a subsidiary of Leica and this convenient link inspired MINOX to create an unusual new edition.

The miniature format Leica IIIf. MINOX has faithfully recreated the original on a scale of 1:3 and the result can be seen for itself. Even at first glance, this photographic jewel, set in a fine wooden case, is a little sensation. But the inner values of the Leica IIIf Classic Camera also shine through. It uses the well-known MINOX 8x11 mm film and is not only fully-functional, but also achieves excellent photographic results using the Minoctar 1:5.5/15mm lens (3 lens elements in 3 groups). And thanks to the optional flash unit, you can even take photos in poor light conditions.
