It's the same color green that Nikon used for the Shutter-Speeds of the Later SP's, F, and F2!

I've had it for about two months now; several rolls of Tri-X and new TMAX 400 have gone through and I'm digging it.

My Bessa R3A with M-Hexanon 28/2.8 and a ZORKI (FSU brand) multi viewfinder

 

[AzzA]

Well i just got my first interchangeable lens rangefinder the other week. A Bessa R3A, with sidegrip and soft release. I also got a second hand 35mm Ultron seperatley for a rediculously cheap price. My first choice would of been a 50mm, but i couldnt pass up the opportunity. Now all i need to do is resist the G.A.S attack, i still dont know how im going to pay my Uni fees this semester! haha

Bessa R with flash

 

[tennis-joe]

Naruto, I have a Bessa R and a Leica Summitar 2.0f-50mm and an Elmar 2.8f-50mm and I have been afraid to put the lens on the camera because the lens retracts into the camera body. Have you damaged the shutter or do you keep it out all of the time to not damage the shutter? I don't know how much room is available to depress the lens?

bessa r2c with biogon 21

I understand taping a Leica but not so sure about taping a Bessa. Don't you tape a Leica so no one thinks it's a Leica? So do you tape a Bessa so that people think it's a Leica pretending not to be a Leica?

 

[cjm]

summilux - that is a SWEET Bessa. The R2s and R2c are IMO the best looking Bessa's. The CZ gear doesn't hurt either 🙂

 

[summilux]

cjm: thanks, the bessa for S and C mounts are actually a little heavier than the M mount version, and CZ is back with passion. Likes such as biogon 21/4.5, biogon 35/2.8, sonnar 50/1.5 and sonnar 85/2 all had their debut on the Zeiss Ikon Contax RF mount between the 1930s-1950s.
