  My favourite Vintage Leica cameras After collecting a few vintage cameras, reading and using the camera, I have finally found my direction in vintage cameras. My aim is to use the cameras as well as to limit the quantities. My focus is on the Leica M3 series as well as the Black paint series. Luckily, the lens are all interchangeble. These are my small refined collection. The Leica M3 black paint is for use in HKG and Olive for use in Singapore while the coming Black Paint M4 is for use during overseas travel.
