Bessa R2 user manual needed.

[manowar]

I've just bought a R2 + Heliar 15/4.5 with matched viewfinder. Im complete new with this kind of thing, 😱 , so can any one tell me how to get focus with this lens.
Also, please post some links for the user manual. I turn the net inside out but couldnt find it.
Cheers

You set the distance on the scale, it is NOT coupled to the rangefinder, neither is the 12mm nor the earlier 25. I doubt you should need a user manual, it is a fairly simple camera with very few controls compared to some of the digital types. go to a library and pick up general book on photography.

This is where I downloaded a PDF of the Bessa R2, R3 and R4 cameras.
