Leica IIIf

IT, phones and consumer electronics

The Leica IIIf is a 35 millimetre screw mount rangefinder camera made by Leitz in Wetzlar. It followed the IIIc and was the first Leica with built in flash synchronisation, set by a dial under the shutter speed dial. Early cameras have black numerals on that dial, later ones from 1952 have red numerals, and from 1954 a self timer was fitted. It was made in large numbers and is one of the most common classic Leicas, usually sold with a collapsible Elmar or Summitar lens.

We recognise this model across the auction sites and keep every one we see together.

On a used one

A buyer checks the shutter curtains for pinholes, the slow speeds for sticking and the rangefinder for a clear patch. The serial number dates the body, and a camera described as a red dial or a self timer version should match its number.

About Leica

Leica is a name used across several related but distinct businesses originating from the German optics maker Leitz. Leica Geosystems, now part of Hexagon AB, produces surveying instruments, laser levels, total stations and distance meters such as the Rugby and Disto ranges seen at auction. Leica Biosystems and Leica Microsystems supply laboratory and microscopy equipment, while the historic Leica Camera brand remains separate and known for precision cameras.

Questions about Leica IIIf auction prices

How many Leica IIIf auction sales are on record?

7 sales with a published hammer price, closed on 20 November 2025, on 2 auction sites in 1 country. 10 more closed without a sale.

Is a Leica IIIf at auction now?

Not at the moment. The lots of this model that come to auction appear on this page while they are open, and every sale that closes with a price is added to the table.

Are the Leica IIIf hammer prices free to read?

The oldest sale of every model is free to read, and so is every hammer price under the site's floor. The other 6 hammer prices of the Leica IIIf open with an account: every sale of the model for a year, or one sale on its own.

Hammer prices are what the auction house recorded when the lot closed, before the buyer's premium, in the currency of the sale. A sale listed on a house's own site and on its platform counts once. Doubt a figure? Open the sale and its listing is linked there. How prices are recorded.
