You can buy a new J8 from moscowphoto or cameramate around £30 UK but it might be fantastic or not ! A new i 61 l/d may not be pretty, but it has a good reputation
I don't know your budget, but I would trust my serviced, but cosmetically challenged ,Leica IIIc with the J8 over my othrerwise much appreciated Zorkis ...but there's the loading and separate viewfinder to worry about.

Thanks for all the advice, I just ordered a black bessa r from cameraquest and should get it on Tuesday. I'm going to pick up a jupiter 8 that I found locally as well, they won't sell the lens without the fed atatched to it but for 85 bucks I get both so it should be alright.
I'll let you guys know how the pictures come out.
One quick quesetion, how does the single coated lens handle color film, I mostly work with black and white and love single coated lens?
