Leica copy stage for reproduction of documents or other 2D items uses 50mm lens and focus tube once focused slide camera in place and copy to your hearts
content.
item is a cobble job mix of nikon & leica parts. cheers douglas |

I wonder how many of these did Leica sell, seems like the copying would be off. Where you position the document or picture and actual lens position is almost 3
inches off to the side. Using the rangefinder on the camera is much closer, I would think!

you focus via the lens/finder tube, then slide the camera over to the lens position. The stage is used on/with a copy stand.
Item is a great doorstop/boatanchor/insertsuitablephrasehere. cheers douglas |
