125. Leica CL prototype 2 with 2/50mm C241 *

The famous, unique Leica CL prototype. It shows the camera in the early stage of development, already in the general shape of the CL, but all the parts are actually exclusive to this prototype. A closer inspection reveals many unique design solutions, like the rangefinder window integrated with the viewfinder, unique back door with a special closing mechanism and opening for the tripod mount (screwed directly into the chassis). With 73.5mm height and 117mm wide the body is also more compact than the production camera (76mm and 120mm accordingly). This experimental Leica CL (marked with blue stickers '2' on the top plate and inside of the back door) is also the only prototype finished in black paint.

Included with this special CL is a prototype Sumicron 2/50mm no.0001076 engraved with optical formula C241 - a unique construction without a counterpart in the Leica lineup.

Exactly this outfit was shown in Lager I 'Cameras' on page 249 and in Vidom no.118 on the cover and pages 48-52. It is for sure one of the most fascinating cameras we have the pleasure to offer.
