Canon L-3 1957 Lever advance version of Canon V with top speed of 1/500 and no sync 12.975 produced (Per Steve Gandy's Camera Quest Page)

NO FLASH SYnc output (shoe or PC)

Decent little camera I had shipped from Japan a few years ago.

With Clean Jupiter 8 and VENT HOOD and Russian 40.5 yellow filter.

I'll take $250 for the whole set. Shipped to the USA

I've run film though it numerous times and it works just fine. Of course slow speeds may be off, but 30th - 500th worked fine for me.

Viewfinder is nice, no big issues (its close to 60 yrs old), but works.

I used to have one of these. Very solid build quality, and the long RF distance between viewfinder and rangefinder window gave very accurate focus even at close distances. Nice setup.

The Rangefinder is ok for a 5cm /1.2.
They accept concentric cassettes.
 
pm offer rejected... I'll keep it for less than $250... Bump.
