I just do not know any Leica items that are made to have a raw brass look? I know the paint quality is not good, except for the viewfinder that is very smooth.  but it is a well worn 1933 item. Here is a better photo of the brass and black paint. Welcome, dear visitor! As registered member you'd see an image here… Simply register for free here – We are always happy to welcome new members! ( You can clearly see a difference: the finder is original painted, the arm holding the item later. Brass is sensible to moisture so any good instrument-maker like Leitz wouldn't leave raw brass visible, either lacquer or nickel or nickel/chrome was applied.

I see the difference too in paint between the finder, and the arm. But it just look like the "non original" paint/lacquer is applied direct on the brass. Then someone removed the nickel from the brass to paint it black afterwards? Anyway, will this add or subtract to rarity/value of this item? best regards Christian  Welcome, dear visitor!

romanus53 Posted November 16, 2021 Share #23 Â Posted November 16, 2021 I'm afraid all post-production modifications if not made by Leica will lower the value of any item for the collectors :-( Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Today I tested the Stereoly in my studio, applied on my Leica M8 with a 35mm color skopar, (to adjust the crop factor). And first result making a stereo photo with this Stereoly is working amazing 3D effect with an old stereo viewer! Welcome, dear visitor!

romanus53 Posted November 16, 2021 Share #25 Â Posted November 16, 2021 some time ago I tried my Stereoly on digital, sent the pictures to a smartphone and used a viewer I got as a giveaway to some 3D-movies where you can slide the smartphone in from the side - crude but works ;-) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some Summar lenses which can use the filter for Agfacolor have a pin on the aperture ring, perhaps for better handling of such lenses there was a cut-out? 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
