Can A Kontax Become A Fast Street Shooter ?

[Graham Line]

Why not ISO 400 ? Here it is an issue of personal preferences and choices.

If we are talking about sun daylight, Iso 200 leaves you the option of f/5.6 with 1/1000 and here I am not looking for the fast speed but for shallow depht of field that I may want sometimes. Using 400 my smallest depht of field will be limited at sunlight to f/8 which is rather high for my scale of preferences.

Cheers,
Ruben

This is where a camera offering shutter speeds faster than 1/1000 offers a creative advantage.

If you are referring to the magnification of the viewfinder, it's pretty close to that of my Leica M6 which is .72. It might be a bit less magnification. What you see through the finder is somewhat more than the 50mm lens sees. It doesn't have a brightline finder with parallax correction so you only have an decent approximation of the real view of the lens. It's close enough.

okay, that's why I have sometimes troubles with my pictures (cutted feet etc )

Thank you 🙂
