Leitz 5cm f2 Rigid Summar, nickel + caps & box. Very rare lens with rare original box (later boxes for the collapsible lens are marked with the code-word �SUMUS�). �Leica historians for years have wondered why there seemed to be very, very few rigid Summar lenses. Indeed, it was an event when this variation surfaced. Leica Photography magazine, June 1934 provides a possible explanation. Owners of the rigid lens could send it in for conversion to collapsible mount. In 10 Jahre Leica Historica, Leica historian Willy Hahne traces the conversion process by listing hundreds of lenses that began as SUMAR but were converted to SUMUS. This .conversion� thus explains in part the scarcity of the rigid Summar. It may be added that factory records suggest that less than two thousand rigid mount lenses were completed�. James L. Lager, Leica. An Illustrated History Volume II � Lenses. From a c.1933 batch numbered 167001-168000

Approximately 6,000 of these cameras - based on a Praktica but with a semi-silvered pellicle mirror and a built in motor-drive - were made, all exclusively for the Stasi. However, it�s quite likely that many have subsequently been destroyed or disposed of - particularly immediately after the fall of the GDR when owning such a camera, with its associations with the Stasi, would have been undesirable. The lenses have a fixed iris and a 36mm thread mount and are supplied with an adapter for them to be fitted to this m42 mount camera. It requires an external 9v (DC) power supply. 50mm lens not pictured.

Reid 1a. This is the extremely rare Reid with no viewfinder. We know of only 2 other examples, both of which we also sold. The serial numbers of the three cameras are all within 14 digits. H.P.R. in ‘Leica Copies’ writes, “Reid 1a. The camera was announced in the British Journal Photographic Almanac 1959. It is also mentioned in different British publications but it has never been seen even in a photo”.

Robot Star Classic + 38mm f2.8 Xenar + cap, original delivery note, German instructions, 'Limitierte Sonderserie' certificate + original shipping box. The plan was to make 500 of these cameras but according to Claude Bellon (Robot Collection, 2003) only 50 were sold. The serial number of this camera is 24 digits higher than the highest number in the serial number range that Bellon lists, suggesting that slightly more may have been sold. McKeown's states 'A special edition of 500 was planned but only about 65 were sold'. This is only the second one we have seen. The camera is totally as new with no signs of use

'At the end of WWII, Peeling & Van Neck had a further model of press camera at the development stage; this time based on a drop-baseboard design, and with a built-in rangefinder and interchangeable lenses. This was in production from around 1958 (9x12cm size), and incorporating both a FP shutter and a leaf shutter on the lens. They also produced a prototype model with only the front shutter but this never reached the production stage' (British Camera Makers, Norman Channing & Mike Dunn, 1995).

This camera and the three sold at Christie's are the only VN Technical cameras of this type known
