At the time, it was much more modern and cheaper than the Rangefinder cameras from Leica. This model reminds me a lot of my Yashica Reporter. Thank you for your well-made video, Bernie
On rangefinders for cheap - definitely zorki and fed. They’re actually quite reliable when in good condition. I shot slide film on my zorki 1 and got perfectly exposed slides(so precise shutter speeds), and there’s loads and loads of cheap m39 lenses on local(local as in my location - ukraine) online flea markets. Jupiter 3 with zorki 1 is my favourite combo. Also, rare red FED 2 with jupiter 8.
Zorkis and Fed were cool to me a while ago, back when people did not think they're made out of solid gold. I've seen several sellers here trying to get $500 for a Zorki 4 which is cray-cray !
They offer me this same camera, I have heard people complain about the rangefinder, which is uncomfortable compared to other models, do you think that's how it is?
Hi! i read some people complaining about the ragefinder... is that true? i have a noticiable miopia... i read some comparations vs Konika S2 and readed about a better ragefinders in the Konica... I dont have experience in analogic stuff... what do you think? thank you
Dear Mr. Dan, I am a newcomer to film photography and I am wondering where I can buy the cheapest (but still good quality) black and white film in Belgium. Both for 35mm and 120mm. I have a Minolta XG M and a Lubitel 2. Thanks in advance! Geert
Great video. No boring padding, and extras such as the viewfinder illustration and the images of the lightbulbs and circuitry really enhance it.
thanks !
Just got my Lynx 5000 serviced. Works like new. Looks like new, too.
Excellent

I don't know about the Konica S2. But this one has no issues to me.
