My father-in-law was an accomplished photographer. After his early retirement
from his real job he for many years was the photographer for our local
performing arts center (promo posters, etc.), he also did portraits, shots for
musicians’ album covers, etc. He did one year-long series of shots
I’ve owned both a iiic and my current iiif. In truth, the rangefinder
viewfinder location becomes second nature after a short period of regular use.
I find the Barnack Leicas delightful in the hand. One of my best photography
memories is having shot several rolls of film during a 10 hour self
I forgot that was pre-coupling. My Leica-fu is more fu than Leica.

Are you talking just about aesthetics? The further apart the windows are, the
smaller the effect on accuracy at longer distances and from slop in linkages.

Because it's nice looking. Even though the viewfinder and rangefinder
windows are too far apart, and the film winder is a pita to use and it
doesn't feel all that great in the hand, it looks nice...

I would ask when we could hope to see your photographs improve,
but as a Leica owner you probably wouldn't deign to talk to
Somewhere I have a Leica IIIc, it was given to me by a non photographer
friend on semi permanent loan.
I have two lenses for it, the collapsible 50mm and a Canon 35mm.
I found the camera to be ergonomically inferior to the Kodak Retna IIc,
it's only actual advantage being that it's easier to

My first thought was that it was some old film era Leica that no longer worked,
