Comment - Not used in any articles on the English Wikipedia. We don't have an article on the Leica I, so not fixable without a bit more work. But that is a beautiful camera. I really want to support... — Chris Woodrich (talk) 13:28, 12 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Comment – Puzzling that this particular Kameraprojekt shot of a pristine restoration (with great detail) isn't used at Leica Camera, which instead uses this pic of a more worn, patina-etched example. Sca (talk) 13:31, 12 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment Sorry, I mixed it up with Leica I. Now it appears in the article! Its my first nomination here, please be lenient...--Hubertl (talk) 13:36, 12 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Halfway down, though. Well, it's a good shot in terms of EV. Like Chris, I like it. (All these prewar cameras were machined and assembled by hand!) Sca (talk) 13:46, 12 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

One of the most incredible experience at this project was, taking every camera in his own hand while closing the eyes. Just to feel it. --Hubertl (talk) 07:49, 13 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Support - But it would look even better in Leica II as well. — Chris Woodrich (talk) 14:27, 12 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Done. Thanks for the suggestion! --Hubertl (talk) 19:42, 12 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
