Re: I have buyed a strange screwmount leica
Hello HEKTOR,
I have just found this thread from 2007 and noticed that you have a similar converted camera like mine.My camera started off as a Leica 1A in 1929 in fact the first camera produced in 1929 and has been converted to the same specification as yours in the early 1950's.It seems that this is quite a rare conversion as most were converted to 111's with slow speed dial.
I notice you quote yours as a model "11a" is this the official name for this conversion?
My camera is serial number 13301* (Whatever the star means with this camera I do not know but it normally meant that a duplicate number had been issued by Leitz).
Kindest Regards,
William
