Does anyone know which Leitz brochure or magazine this photo belongs to?  Thanks Welcome, dear visitor!

Jetkey Posted September 24, 2023 Author Share #3  Posted September 24, 2023 Thanks for the reply. Here is my M39 LUX and it has the same serial number (1691538) as the lens in the camera picture shown in the LSI History article 5/16/23. That's why I searched for the book title and tried to find out the story or background behind this lens.  Welcome, dear visitor!

qqphot Posted September 24, 2023 Share #4 Â Posted September 24, 2023 That would be a fascinating bit of history to track down! I hope you're able to find the source. As an aside, I imagine focusing that lens accurately wide open must be a challenge unless one's rangefinder is carefully adjusted for it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
