Leica If Red Dial. Leitz code name OEFGO. Serial number in the 780,000 range, manufactured in 1955.
This model omits the viewfinder, rangefinder, and slow shutter speeds found on the later Leica IIIf. It features two accessory shoes, giving it excellent flexibility for various combinations. The texture of the vulcanite and the matte chrome finish share the same refined quality seen on the Leica M3, both representing the golden era of Leitz.
Mount a wide-angle lens for pan-focus snapshots, attach an external viewfinder for scale-focus shooting, or fit a FOKOS or other standalone rangefinder and enjoy the lively, busy look of the top plate. With the vast array of Leitz accessories available, this camera offers endless mix-and-match possibilities and a uniquely enjoyable Leica experience.

The body shows minimal signs of use and remains in very clean condition. The base plate has a few extremely light scuff marks that can only be seen under a strong LED light and a loupe, and they are barely noticeable to the naked eye.
Fully overhauled in October 2025. The film advance operates smoothly, and the shutter has a pleasant, satisfying feel, making it a joy to use.
Pair it with your favorite accessories or lenses and enjoy exploring a variety of setups.
