Advertisement (gone after registration)

A few days ago, browsing the internet. I came across an ad in a photography store for an amazing item. According to the advertisement: Leica universal viewfinder turret finder. The peculiar thing about this ad is its photos, it couldn't be true. The item in the photos was a Leica VIOOH Round Body Universal Viewfinder. It seemed impossible, well, thinking that it couldn't be true, I took a chance and bought it. Today I received it, my surprise was capital. Many times we have the strangest item in front of our noses and we don't see it.

A lucky find, indeed !! Surely someone is better informed than me about the variants of VIOOH.. anyway I quickly found the round version quoted as a very rare one here : http://www.wetzlar-historica-italia.it/viooh.html

Just as a curiosity to establish an aproximate date... does it have the front thread for TUVOO ? (apparently not)

¡¡Un hallazgo afortunado, de hecho!! Seguramente alguien está mejor informado que yo sobre las variantes de VIOOH... de todos modos encontré rápidamente la versión redonda citada como muy rara aquí :  http://www.wetzlar-historica-italia.it/viooh.html

Solo como curiosidad para establecer una fecha aproximada... ¿tiene el hilo frontal para TUVOO? (aparentemente no)

 

I saw a twin from 1936.
