After rousing a great deal of interest among collectors and admirers of mechanical precision with the two classic cameras Leica IIIf and Leica M3, the Classic Camera Leica If has been launched as another legendary product from this series.
This classic camera from Leica was first presented in 1951 and its production continued until 1956. The Leica I f is a simplified version of the Leica II f, which does without long exposure times and has no viewfinder or rangefinder. The first edition in 1951 produced a total of 2200 cameras and between 1952 and 1956 a further 1300 were made.
The Leica If uses the legendary MINOX miniature 8 x 11 mm film, just like its predecessors. The top quality Minoctar lens 1:5,6/15 mm with three lens elements in three groups guarantees the very best imaging results. A further highlight of this miniaturized classic camera is the attachable 15 mm viewfinder. Furthermore, there is a flash unit available as an accessory item, making it possible to capture excellent shots even in unfavorable light.
