Description & Customization Policy
Description:
Canon IIIa refinished in black lacquer — a finish Canon never offered on its Barnack-style rangefinders. The camera is stripped to its component parts, serviced, refinished and reassembled; on a body of this era that means a large number of small pieces handled individually, which is why the conversion takes as long as it does. Engravings are re-cut and filled. The cloth focal-plane shutter is serviced and the rangefinder cleaned and aligned. These bodies were built roughly a decade after their German ancestors and the machining quality is remarkably close.

Returns and Warranty Policy
We accept returns for non-customized items within 30 days of purchase. However, because customized items are uniquely crafted to meet your specifications, or if a product is mentioned as non-returnable on its page, a 50% restocking and refurbishment fee will apply for any returns. This fee helps cover the cost of the custom work and refurbishment necessary for resale.
We encourage customers to consider their purchase carefully, as these items are designed specifically for them. If you encounter any issues with your custom order, please contact us, and we’ll do our best to resolve them.
We are committed to ensuring your satisfaction with our services. Full refunds will be accepted in the following cases:
- Damage During the Customization Process
If the camera is damaged during the repainting or customization process, we will issue a full refund or provide a suitable replacement. - Functional Issues Upon Delivery
If the camera arrives with functional issues (e.g., non-working buttons, dials, or electronics), we will accept a full refund request.
Important Note:
Before shipping, every camera undergoes a comprehensive inspection to ensure it is in perfect working condition and meets our quality standards. We take pride in delivering cameras that are as reliable as new. If any issues occur, please notify us immediately upon receiving your order.
Important Notes
- Warranty Implications: Repainting may void the original manufacturer’s warranty. Please consult with the camera manufacturer before proceeding.
- Design Variations: Slight differences may occur between the approved design and the finished product due to the manual process and material properties.
- Camera Functionality: We ensure no interference with the camera's operational components during the repainting process.
