LEICA MIFILMCA 35MM MICROPHOTOGRAPHIC CAMERA

The Leica Mifilmca was Leitz's first 35mm microphotographic camera. Its design resembles that of a Compur Leica but lacks a viewfinder and accessory shoe. Instead, it features a conical tube with a 1/3 magnification ratio, an Ibsor shutter, and a beam-splitter. Early models have low (6mm) film advance knobs, while later versions are equipped with a higher (8mm) knob. The original version of the Mifilmca, which included a fixed tube, likely emerged in the late 1920s or early 1930s³⁶⁰.
