Description

The Nicca 3-F is a beautifully crafted Japanese 35mm rangefinder that represents the golden age of Leica-inspired camera manufacturing. Renowned for its precise mechanical construction and smooth operation, the 3-F offers a fully mechanical shooting experience with a bright coupled rangefinder and compatibility with the extensive Leica Thread Mount lens system.

Paired with the Nippon Kogaku Nikkor-H.C 5cm F2, this combination becomes especially desirable. The six-element Nikkor-H.C is one of Nikon’s most celebrated rangefinder lenses, prized for its excellent sharpness, rich contrast, and smooth tonal rendering. Its fast F2 aperture provides excellent versatility for available-light photography while maintaining the classic optical character of early Nikkor lenses.

Compact, durable, and elegantly engineered, the Nicca 3-F and Nikkor-H.C 5cm F2 make an outstanding classic rangefinder outfit for street photography, travel, and documentary work. Today, this combination is appreciated by both collectors and photographers for its historical significance, refined craftsmanship, and timeless image quality.
