Early II Model D with 'toilet seat' top plate. The lens looks odd as the infinity catch should be at 7 O'clock, perhaps it is not fully screwed in. The minimum focus stop should be at 1 O'Clock and not 11 O'Clock with this type of infinity stop.

Movie prop? Maybe a FED (Soviet copy)?

 

We have already identified this camera. It appears to be a genuine II Model D on the basis of the photo above. I should know this model as I have 6 of them.

No doubt William, genuine II and it looks like genuine Elmar. But did you spot how the lens, infinity lock, is positioned? Either lens not fully screwed on the camera or lens flange on the body not properly mounted

Thanks, Jerzy. I mentioned the lens position above on March 19. The infinity catch is definitely in the wrong position, so the lens must not be fully screwed in.
