Leica M3 Rangefinder + Leica Summicron 50mm f/2 Lens

The Leica M3 + Summicron 50mm f/2 is one of the most iconic camera combinations ever produced. This is the setup that helped define modern 35mm photography, pairing Leica’s legendary mechanical rangefinder design with one of the most respected standard lenses in photographic history. The M3 is often considered the purest expression of the classic Leica shooting experience. Fully mechanical, beautifully engineered, and incredibly smooth to operate, it remains a favorite among street photographers, documentary shooters, collectors, and anyone who appreciates precision mechanical cameras. The included Leica Summicron 50mm f/2 delivers exactly the kind of rendering Leica became famous for: Exceptional sharpness Smooth tonal transitions Beautiful contrast Natural, dimensional rendering Compact size with incredible build quality Together, this setup offers an experience that feels dramatically different from modern cameras. Quiet, deliberate, and tactile in the best possible way. This particular body is especially desirable because it has already received a professional CLA service directly from Leica, a huge plus for long-term reliability and usability. Condition: EXCELLENT The Leica M3 body is in excellent condition and has recently received a CLA (Clean, Lubricate, Adjust) service from Leica. The camera operates smoothly with proper rangefinder function, transport, and shutter operation. The included Summicron 50mm f/2 lens is in good condition overall, though it does show scratches on the front element. These may introduce some flare or reduced contrast in difficult lighting conditions, but the lens remains very usable and retains the classic Leica rendering people love. The body presents beautifully overall with only normal cosmetic signs of careful use.
