Well-known
I just a great little tread in the R-D1 forum on serial numbers. I found it fascinating to read too.
So I was wandering about the Bessa R2, and how many were made. (the last mechanical shutter model that works without a battery, but the First "M" mount).
I have a black Bessa R2 SN xxx2909.
Does this put it in the first year of production ?
And many were made for the total Production of the Bessa R2
Does the SN tell use that is a Black or Chrome version ?
What is your number ??
Did you buy it new ?
