LEICA (M2 Black Paint Original) Summicron 2/50mm 2nd early version
Maker: LEICA
Model: M2 Original Black Paint
Year: 1964y
Serial No.:
Box/Papers: N/A
This is an original black painted M2. The M2 has the same film counter mechanism as the original MP, and is easy to use, with a viewfinder frame that has been standard since the 35mm model, making it a stress-free camera to use even today. Of course, the small number of units and the aforementioned features of the mechanism and design are also reasons why it is becoming more valuable as a collection.
The paint has a beautiful appearance with minimal deterioration or peeling. The functionality is also perfect, including the viewfinder and shutter mechanism.
The M2 Black Paint was used mostly by professionals, so there are not many clean ones left. Also, there are some that have had the chassis or viewfinder replaced for some reason during repairs, or that have been repainted, so you should be careful when purchasing.
Why not take this opportunity to get the well-made M2 black paint?
