as is, with what I believe needs to be is a shutter curtain reattached, would it sell on here for say $600 with everything included

i think one curtain is off and not working at all.and from what I've seen of the m4 2, it looks like my front curtain is not working at all and it's not in sight and the one curtain coming from the right side of the camera as looking at it from the back is the one moving as I cock it.which I...

I am taking to him next month,$25 bench fee plus the $95 is still worth it to me and he may have the parts there to fix it since he has the same model.Probably,if thats the case,reattach the curtain or if its damaged,replace it which will be Im guessing about $200.

yes since i think 1 curtain is missing or stuck open or come off the bar

oh believe me I have no intentions of touching this camera as I know my limitations. with a 7 to 10 day turnaround its worth taking it to him which is by appointment only.as far as the curtains are concerned he said they moved back at the same time and since I only seen one channel for a curtain...

as is I doubt if it will bring a couple of thousand dollars, not saying that it won't but I seen some on eBay in better condition going for $1500 but with the higher serial numbers.someone said put a drop of oil down the shutter release, yeah like that's what I'm going to do, you can just feel...

the lenses have no issue at all and the shutter curtain is intact just sticking. I only see the one shutter curtain pull back from left to right looking at the back of the camera. looking at a diagram it seems like there's a smaller one that's wrapped up around the drum on the right side, I...

as you can see the back and bottom plate are just as clean

as far as the rest of the camera the lever for the frame lines is Snappy and the frame lines themselves are bright along with the rangefinder patch. a few specs as to be expected but no separation of the glass, nothing a Q-tip,some alcohol ,and some air would fix.

the man above is local and only about an hour away from where I live.

talking about repair,there is a man named Ken Toda, originally from japan, he charges 95 dollars for a cla and his favorite camera that he has used for 40 years is a Leica M4.he has professional credentials and a good reputation locally. He so it will only take a week to 10 days for a CLA

SOLD! ..the lenses have no issues with them no cleaning marks as far as I can tell and in perfect working order no fungus or Haze. the lens is made in 1958 the telephoto in 1966

wait.. Are you saying I should put these up for sale in the marketplace?.. I see what you're saying ..that this camera is worth of Fortune even as it is. :-)..How what you think I can get for it?

I was actually going to sell all of it in the condition that it was in, and even though the body has a few issues the lenses don't

and I know everyone here has more experience than me so don't believe that it's not being wasted. exactly how are two Shredder curtains supposed to look like on this body? I can see the one going from left to right looking at the front of the camera but that's all I can see, is there another...

the shutter release doesnt stick really..just weak,no click on the way down.No resistance..even though resistance is futile :\

and see everyone says curtains but I can only see one and only one channel

this is what the button pressed you can see the curtain is almost all the way over but not quite

the curtain is to the far left that you can still see the back plate and this is with the camera cocked

and I read where he done really good work, but from my understanding there are two shutter curtains and only see one or am I missing something? ..I definitely want to start using a rangefinder and let my Olympus om-1 rest for a while

as I just realized this counter is different than on my Olympus, it actually sets two or three frames before zero and goes another Direction. so least that's taken care of.

okay, so i had the chance to purchase my first rangefinder for $150 which is an M4,1967 MODEL..along with a Elmarit 1: 2.8/90 lens. The camera has a couple of issues,when i cock it the shutter stays open,through all speeds,and only closes as i let off the weak shutter release button.Also it...

thank you very much, that was gold in itself

I hope it's addicting lol always loved the Leica,is there anything I need to check out early, before loading it or is shooting it the best way to find out more

I hope it's addicting..Iol...I forgot I did have 1 range finder..a richomatic..advances with a lever in the bottom...my dad brought it back over after the korean war.is there anything I need to look for on this camera before using it?

the serial number of the body is 1182310

I already bought it and it seems to be in working condition without knowing how to calibrate the shutter speeds or at least check for accuracy

I am new here and to Leica though not to film as i use an Olympus OM1N, I had the chance to buy my first rangefinder and my first LEICA. Its an 1967 M4 with a Summaricon 1:2.8/35 Leitz Wetzlar lens(1628130) and a Leitz Canada 1: 2.8/90 Tele-elmarit lens(2215466) all for $150.00,what can you tell...
