I was watching a Voigtlander Vitomatic IIA on ebay, and the seller sent me an offer to buy it for £10
I accepted and didn't know what I would get, but was prepared to strip it right down etc.
What a surprise! The shutter is very accurate at all speeds, the rangefinder is accurate, the light meter works and is accurate, it is in fantastic cosmetic condition.
The lens looks "new", and no signs of corrosion on the metal work.
The case is excellent, the elastic hinges are still good, the strap is original and still supple.
It is one of the best Vitos I have, and the shutter sounds just right too.
Trying hard to finish a film to see if the results are as good as it looks
