Hello guys
I'm looking at getting a film range finder that I can go out with some black and white film with and enjoy photography whilst being forced to take my time. (Unlike digital machine gun shooting).
I've been looking at he Voigtlander Bessa R with Voigtlander 35mm f2.5 Pii.
I think this combo should be perfect however I never realised how many R cameras there are! I believe I shall need an R2 to work best with the 35mm lens however there's R2, R2A R2M, then there are the Older bodies.
So has anyone used anyway of these and would anyone have any advice on what I should ideally be looking for and what camera body I should get within this range?
Budget is sub £500 so I'm guessing that leaves between £250 and £280 for a body once I've found a lens.
Thanks
