What it is

{"overview":"The Leotax NR III is a Japanese 35mm rangefinder camera produced by Showa Kogaku in the post-war era, when Leotax models were built around the Leica screw-mount tradition. With only one sale on file, the price a clean example sells for today could deviate substantially in either direction depending on condition, completeness and bidder interest at saleroom level.","buying_guide":"As with other screw-mount Leotax rangefinders, inspect the shutter curtains for pinholes and check that slow speeds run cleanly, the rangefinder patch is visible and aligned, and the top-plate engravings are unworn.
