Diversifying slightly from my usual Vito B focus I picked this Vito IIa up in a junk shop a few days ago for next to nothing.
Its in excellent condition. Cosmetically the only real fault I can find is a really small ding on the top right corner of the top plate (with the lens pointing towards you). Other than than it very clean and the optics are beautifully clear.
It could do with a CLA as it has the usual Prontor shutter issue at slow speeds. 30s and above are OK though so its perfectly useable as it is.
Came with the original ER leather case - sound but missing the strap. Its cleaned up nicely and looks presentable after a good wax and polish. I dont really use these cases, I prefer a neoprene padded wrap to carry cameras in my rucksack.
Ergonomically I think that its better than the Vito B - everything is positioned in a way that really suits how my brain works.
I may have to get another...............

Ive been quoted what I consider to be a really good price for a CLA by Simon Whitehead in West London. Will be posting it to them tomorrow!
