Leica IIIc (grey repaint) &nbsptype_Flash Coupling Provides full aperture and focusTo get it out of the way: This is not a "real" grey lacquer IIIc, it's a modern repaint. It's a pretty handsome job: the finish is even, and the lettering is finely detailed. As with any repaint, we can't vouch for the durability of the finish, but it's obviously a pro job. Good shutter speeds, good rangefinder, and smooth controls. A solid little camera in an unusual colour.
