just got a wild hair, searched ebay for a Bessa L, scored a new one never used, so i understand, and now it appears to be on its way. i have two of the Rs and a T, an RD and now the L on its way. severe GAS but interestingly i use them all at different times and am not fussed about body marks as they are for me tools.

i am intersted to know who is using the Bessa L? and are there pictures from this camera...according to CQ.com, not a rangefinder per se but not any other kind either, it seems. i have the 15 and 21 CV lenses and am thinking maybe the 28/3.5 CV might be a good one for it as well. i imagine i will put one lens on it and keep it there as i use the 15 and 21 on the RD a lot.

i am only offering this up for general information and am interested in peoples' comments. i am very excited about having this camera in the glovebox at the ready...

I'm quiet satisfied with mine. It's compact and light weight and the light meter reading on the top makes it perfect for street shooting. I just can't say how reliable it is since it feels cheap compared to my Canon P. I have just purchased a Bessa R and hope it is built better than the L.
