The Voigtlander Bessa-R3M Rangefinder Camera Kit is the 250th anniversary limited edition version of the Bessa R3A camera. While being identical in all other apsects to the R3A model, the R3M features a mechanical shutter release. This makes it possible to use the camera even without batteries, albeit without metering. Also included with this camera is a newly-designed Heliar 50mm f/2.0 collapsible lens, styled after the historical Leitz 50mm f/2 Summicron. The Voigtlander Bessa R3A/M is an improved version of the Bessa R2 rangefinder camera, which in itself is an advancment over the original Bessa R camera. Of course, all of the original Bessa R's outstanding features are retained; an exceptionally bright viewfinder, quiet shutter & simple LED metering system. In addition, the Bessa R3A/M series is the first M mount camera ever to feature a 1:1 viewfinder. As a result, shooting with both eyes open is now possible. Also, when bundled with a 50mm lens, the frame lines will show a bigger area in the viewfinder.

"I've lately decided to do some street photography that allows me to be wireless (i.e. trying to go light, back to film, with equal assurance of getting any shot without the need for a battery).

The R3M is not as silent as I had hoped, having a Nikon F3 with 50/2 Nikkor lens to compare my Bessa wi …" Read Full Review »
