Hi, I found a Nicca 33 with nicca 50mm 2.8 do you have any info about this camera and lens? The lens is a copy of? pictures with? samples please,
thanks so much!!
 
Consider the lack of feedback a suggestion that it is indeed rare. I seem to recall a speculation that the lens is a tessar. If so, it ought to be plenty sharp. Don't quote me on that though.

Congrats on the lucky find. 🙂
 
The Nicca 33 looks to be based on the 2nd series Nicca 3-F the one with the lever wind and about 1000 were made in 1958 when Nicca was bought out by Yashica and was renamed the Yashica YE. The lens looks to be a Tessar design probably made by Komura or its spin off optical factories.
