4x5 Linhof Precision Camera Early Pre Technika Linhof Camera Werk Munchen

Description

Here is a very rare early pre WWII Linhof Precision Camera. I believe this model was the Linhof Precision but please look at the pictures as these early Linhofs are hard to distinguish and there is very little information about them online. The only identification I could find was "Linhof Camera Werk Munchen" on the front bed. I could not find any serial number on the camera. The camera takes standard 4x5 film holders. It has a rotating back. The bellows are in excellent shape. I checked them with a flashlight and could only see one tiny pinhole corner leak. The Hugo Meyer rangefinder works. The lens is a Rodenstock Eurynar f4.5 13.5cm lens in a Compur shutter. The lens is not original to the camera as it does not match the focus guide on the front bed which says it was for a 15cm lens. The shutter fires but the speeds are not accurate. The lens is really just for display. The leather on the camera is very good. The clasp locking the back viewing hood is not original. When I open the viewing hood one of the side flaps has detached. The ground glass is intact. The film holder in one of the pictures above is just to show how it holds 4x5 film holders and is not included.  The camera makes an excellent early Linhof for ones collection.
