This Sogno is a later-range version with serial number 04067 together with its' Vitor Lens. This camera has a bit of history... first, it is only about EX++ grade cosmetically and so not high on the collectability scale. Second, we had tried to have this camera CLA'd twice in Italy but both experienced guys gave up on the rangefinder. Finally I sent it to the master Radu in the USA. He completed the CLA of the camera and lens, with new shutter curtain, but while he could indeed re-make the rangefinder, the cost was just not worth it, more than the camera is worth. So now it is basically a "View" camera, similar to the Simplex but it can also take the variety of lenses of the Sogno. I plan on shooting a roll or 2 someday soon with it to check the results. The kicker is that with Radu's CLA, it is the smoothest operating of any of the Sogno's we own, a dream to use, so if my test shots come out as well as expected I may just decide to keep it.

As always, we will include a film cassette as well.

Price: $750

INSTRUCTION MANUAL

This is a later range Sogno with serial number 07505 with its' Vitor Lens. As it is still in working condition we have not yet had it CLA'd, but for anyone planning on using it often it should be. The slower speeds, 50 and less are working, but not perfectly. The higher speeds seem fine. Cosmetically it is a beauty, about M- so it would look great as part of any collection. We will include a film cassette as well.

Price: $850

This Sogno is a mid-range "Per Collaboratore" version with the normal leather type grip and serial number 03138 with its' Vitor Lens. It has been fully CLA's by Ferro in Italy. A very collectable and useable camera in about M- condition, a beauty that is running smoothly. We will include a film cassette as well.

Price: $1350

Note: All of the above Sogno cameras have the Vitor 3.5 lens attached. Should you require the 2.8 Vitor we can swap out the 3.5 for for an additional $100 for any of these cameras. While supply lasts, we only have two extra 2.8's.
