    Description

    This is one of the very great lesser known cameras and for those aware of them quite sort after.  This is the Voightländer Prominent a 35mm rangefinder film camera -
    body only
    .
    This is the original first type body with a knob winder, and in my opinion the better looking of the various versions.
    Condition-wise
    it looks to be in decent order with no obvious damage. Everything seems to work on this camera with the shutter firing at what sounds like the right speed although lower speeds (1/25 and longer) the shutter does appear to be slow;  a full CLA is recommended. Inside is clean.
    It dates from around 1956    with shutter speeds from B, though 1, ½, 1/5, 1/10, 1/25, 1/50, 1/100, 1/250 and 1/500  second.
    The range-finder is clear with decent contrast and appears more or less accurate though I haven't given it rigorous testing.
    No lens is offered with this camera it is just the
    body only
    as shown in the pictures which form the main description on condition.
