Question about RFers in general and Industar

[ttryi]

Hi all,

I am brand new to RFers and am awaiting my new Bessa R! I can't wait. Well I am a newbie to RFers and am wondering, if you're looking through an SLR, you're looking at the exact image. For the rangefinder, when you look through the viewfinder, and you take the picture, will you be taking the same picture you see within the guidelines in the viewfinder? I'm sorry if this is a really dumb question, but I am curious. Also, the Bessa R I ordered is coming with an Industar l61. Is this a good lens? If you have any samples I would appreciate it. Thanks!

The Industar 61 is highly regarded , especially if you like contrast.

The framelines should be approximately what you get - it's often best to allow a little room.

Welcome to the forum, no question will be regarded as dumb here 🙂

Awesome,
I figure once I shoot my first test roll I'll see the difference from the framelines...if any. Thanks Peter.
