own a leica rangefinder
Untitled 2 years ago

Previously used Canon AE-1 and Olympus E-330.

Then I moved upto a Voigtlander Bessa R2 rangefinder equipped with a Nokton 40mm f1.4.

Fantastic combo, and I recommend it to anyone who loves rangefinders but cannot afford a Leica. I still use mine as a secondary camera.

Now I own a Leica M6 (no TTL). Its a fantastic camera, except for flares on the yellow patch from certain angles. But besides that, the yellow patch is larger making focus easier than that on the Bessa. And it sure is bright, unlike the older 70s rangefinders (ie. Yashica).

Still using the Nokton, but I would love to try out the summicron 35mm f2.

Good luck with your Leica hunting everyone!
