    I should mention the £290 was the auction price, I had to pay a further 24 % buyers commission inc VAT!

    Do you know what Leica Amelia Earhart took on her last flight?

      Hello, sorry I do not know but it could only be a Leica 1, 11 or early 111. However I have come across a claim that someone was selling a Leica I, with a fixed lens, similar to the one I have on ebay some years back and they were claiming it belonged to Amelia Earheart but I don't think the claim was substantiated.

    Another great, informative video, a lovely camera! Where do you recommend for servicing in the UK? (You mentioned Cameraworks UK in one of your other videos I think?)
    Thank you.

      Thank you Chris, Alan Starkie of Cameraworks - UK is well known for his excellent work and has serviced two of mine. The only negative thing is because he is so good you will probably have a long wait for your camera. I think he has also stopped taking in work from other countries because of work load.

      Hi, thank you for the recommendation, that’s great, I’ll check them out.
      Have a lovely weekend, I hope the pictures in the camera come out ok.
