The Earliest Fison

 

THE British magazine MODERN PHOTOGRAPHY circa 1930 illustrates what appears to be the earliest FISON lens shade mounted to a Leica A. The rectangular opening rotated as the lens was focused making it necessary to reorient the shade for every shot. Leitz Wetzlar produced the later FISON with a circular opening. No need for reorientation!
