Canon 7sz Rangefinder Top

I am lucky to get this one in mint condition cheap. It comes with a Canon 50mm f1.8 lens and the original leather case. This is a rare 7sz or Type 2 rangefinder with only 4,000 made while there were 16,000 7s. Of course, the number of Canon 7 is much greater (137,500). The differences between a 7s and a 7sz are three: 1. the film rewind is larger for 7sz; 2. there is a small cap (plug) with access to rangefinder calibration inbetween "n" of Canon and "7"; the light meter guage is slightly rasied instead of flush with the top.

 

It uses Leica M39 screw mount. I hope to get a f1.4 or f1.2 lens. It can also mount a f.95 lens with baynet mount.
