Advertisement Posted June 14, 2018 Posted June 14, 2018 Hi box86rowh, Take a look here Leica Ig with Self Timer?. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
luigi bertolotti Posted June 15, 2018 Share #2 Posted June 15, 2018 I think it's quite difficult to establish if the number of 5 is real… the IG (mainly a "lab camera" for special usages) was declared as upgradable to IIIG, so no surprise that the self timer was a quite simple addon available on order from the factory : afaik it was never listed as an option, but given the specific kind of some customers it is surely possible that they had managed an order for some IGs with selftimer directly provided at the origin… maybe the vague info about "only 5 made" derives from a documented order of this kind… Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
