This camera was bought more to display than to use. Everything seems to work on it, but even if it is a russian replica, it is replicating an eighty odd year old design. Nonetheless, the workmanship is better than the average russian camera, and it can fool many people. The replicator however may need a german thesaurus - he spelled "krigsmarine" instead of "kreigsmarine" on the camera top. I showed the camera to many people, but only I noticed the misspelling, so no harm,no foul. There are far more ornate replicas out there, this one is simple, and pleasant. A nice deal overall. By the way this replica "belonged" to U boat 271, which was sunk off of the Irish coast in late 1944 or early 1945. I wonder how many different U Boats are represented by the various replicas out here?Read full review
Camera is in great exterior shape but the shutter does not go off.

This camera is as classy as the original Leica's with a little more visual P-ZAZ. If you like the feel and fun of using old analog technology, then one of these is right for you. Unlike the simple digital/auto units of today, these older units offer the photo enthusiast a little mental challenge to learn the older film methods. The PICS you get from these are really cool to look at, especially if you go all the way and shoot in black & white.
Beautifully restored camera in good working condition. Nice, collectable camera for display or use.
