What it is
{"overview":"The Canon 1950 is an early Canon screw-mount rangefinder, part of the 35mm rangefinder line the company developed in the late 1940s and early 1950s. As of 2026, anyone asking what a Canon 1950 is worth at saleroom level should treat these wholesale figures as a guide rather than a firm market value, since condition, completeness and originality drive what each example sells for.","buying_guide":"Inspect the rangefinder for a clear, contrasty patch and accurate vertical and horizontal alignment, as faded or misaligned finders are common on cameras of this age. Check shutter curtains for pinholes and confirm all speeds fire cleanly, particularly the slow speeds, and verify the screw-mount thread is undamaged.

Questions
Is the Canon 1950 compatible with Leica screw-mount lenses?
Yes, it uses the M39 Leica thread mount, so it accepts the wide range of screw-mount lenses made by Canon, Leitz and other manufacturers of the period.
