Canon L2 rangefinder body in good condition. The L2 is a Leica thread mount rangefinder with integral 35mm and 50mm finders. It was made in modest numbers and is both collectible and very usable. Owning this camera will allow the user to shoot with some of the finest lenses ever made (by Leica, Canon, Voigtlander, and many others).

All functions are in working order. The shutter speeds sound correct (both slow and fast), the rangefinder patch is bright and aligned, the film advance smooth, the curtains clean, the door latch correct, the rewind pop-up latch is working, the finder clear, and the film counter is working (did I forget anything?). Cosmetically the camera is in good condition with no damage.

This camera is stylish looking and a joy to use.

Price: $225 plus insured shipping

I ship to most countries. I accept checks, money orders, and PayPal.

Is the wheel next to the VF to adjust for lens type? What are the actual shutter speeds? Looks very nice.

Dan, the shutter speeds are T,1,2,4,8,15,30 (slow speed dial) 30,60,125,250,500. Yes, the small wheel you note changes the viewfinder with a detented action to settings of 35mm, 50mm, and "RF", which is a highly magnified view for rangefinder focusing.
