Leicaflex Standard

I have a Leicaflex Standard camera.  I have been told it is non-repairable.  I the two lenses that came with the camera along with a closeup lens adapter.  Elmarit-R 2.8/135mm, Summicron-R 2.0/50mm w/hood and Elpro VI b along with lens caps.  Is there a market for any of these?

The Leica Q3 is available for pre-order at B&H Photo Video and Adorama

Who told you?

Welcome to the Forum !  Almost any Leitz item, generally speaking, has "a market"... and lenses in particular : the two you have are not rare but you can get an idea of current mean values looking at ebay... The Leicaflex standard was a rather simple camera... and purely mechanical, apart its simple meter : unless grossly damaged, strange it is non repairable.

I'd contact DAG or Sherrie Krauter to see about repairs.

I'm sure that Leica will not repair it, but most of the vintage camera repair shops can handle it, I'm sure.

Sherrie K is retired I hear and Don’s (DAG) son is now lead tech at DAG’s. I did some business early 2023 with DAG. Pleasant and responsive. I’m sure junior is the same. Techs with knowledge, training and tools to maintain these wonderfully built but quite senior cameras are getting scarce. Don’t wait for that M-3 ds CLA you’ve been putting off!
