New Bessa R5A or M

[Sparrow]

Next new Bessa R5A should be like the 4 but have 12, 15, 21 and 25 frame lines, then I could put all the auxiliary finders in a drawer and forget which one; how good would that be 😎
I’d buy one; anyone else?

Really wonder what would be the spec for the Bessa 5 Series in future?

Could be cheaper, too, since RF is not needed 🙂

Personally, I'd like to see a Bessa for long lenses; 50, 75, 90, and 135.
That would make a good companion to the R4.
Perhaps a new "L" with a system of variying/flip-up frames (for the really wides) and a peep hole for correct eye placement?

What an interesting idea. A next generation L (the L2X) for ultrawides. Change the finder switch to show different magnifications for 12, 15, 21 and 25. Do we make it M mount even though most of our lenses are LTM? I think it would be a fine idea. Make sure it can take a winder (my favorite accessory). I do wish the 5 would be for longer lenses, but an L2X (X being A or M) with a viewfinder would be fun!
