Here's my somewhat special Bessa R. I bought it used about 2 months ago and I've put around 60 rolls through it. I love this camera.

I'm a student at the Rochester Institute of Technology, and I recently was given the chance to participate in a Magnum event, along with around 50 of my classmates. I ended up spending two weeks working with Larry Towell (check his work out if you have not already), and at the end of the event last night I asked him if he would sign the bottom of my camera, which he graciously did for me. So my Bessa has an original signature that reads "to Andy with thanks . . . Rochester, NY 28/4/12 Larry Towell." Pretty sweet! Attached is the photo of the signed Bessa.

Cheers!

Andy

My first modern rangefinder (bought 3.5 years ago, sold in a year 🙁 )
with M-Hexanon 50/2.0, Luigi's basic half-case with bild-in-grip, Tom Abrahamsson's mini soft release and self-made wrist strap:

What do you use now? Why did you sell after a year?

Trade it for M6 under GAS attack 🙂. Understand now, that Bessa had everything I need... Great camera!

Damn you guys! Y'all made me run out and buy this beauty. Just loaded up a test roll of Kodak 400.

Sweet rig, my man.

Great combo Jared. I just did the same about two weeks ago with my R2. Haven't developed anything from the J8 yet.

Leica M8.2 and Voigtländer Color-Skopar 18mm f/4 LTM:

Wow, never knew this was even around... 🙂

 

[JChrome]

My R4M with Zeiss 21mm 2.8. The lens does come into the viewfinder somewhat but I don't mind it 🙂.

This just arrived today 🙂

I originally bought the Biogon to use on my Sony Nex but found it too long (52.5mm equivalent) & the Bessa seemed a sensible option to use it on 35mm.

Beautiful kit

The main annoying characeristic of a Bessa camera is the shutter sound level. It alerts everyone in the neighborhood (so to speak) that I have taken a photo. I am today using a Canon 19mm on a Bessa L. The built-in meter is very useful.
