What it is
{"overview":"The Voigtländer VSL 1 is a 35mm single-lens reflex camera sold under the Voigtländer & Sohn name. With so few data points, what a VSL 1 is worth today depends heavily on condition, completeness and whether a working lens is included, and the saleroom range above reflects wholesale levels before buyer's premium.","buying_guide":"Inspect the shutter at all speeds, check the light meter response, and confirm the mirror and focusing screen are clean.

At the lower end of the recorded range it offers an inexpensive route into a 35mm SLR, provided the shutter, meter and seals check out on inspection.
