The only leica M (so far?) that doesn’t conform to the aesthetic standards that the normal M camera’s have. Some people love it, some people hate it, you decide!

This Leica M5 is in beautiful condition, is an early version (2lug) and is in good working condition.

The external appearance is beautiful with barely any user marks. The camera has just been serviced, and the shutter times are spot on. Unfortunately the lightmeter isn't working, as somebody has removed the arm with the light sensor, if you can find a separate arm, we think the lightmeter will come back to life. (sometimes people modify this when they want to use lenses that are normally not compatible with the M5 as the rear element of the lens protrudes to far towards the film plane, and hitting the lightmeter)

It shouldn't matter, as this one has been fully serviced/overhauled by Amsterdam Camera Repairs. This includes film transport, shutter drum, rangefinder calibration. It also received a modification for the lightmeter, so you can use it with modern (1.5v - PX625) batteries.
