What new Voigtlander RF or SLR product would you like to see?

[Kolame]

I want a high-end-Bessa, for say 1300€ (recommended retail price). Better build quality, longer base-length, an easy to use shutter-speed-dial, the one on my Bessa-R is just crap and the last one: a better shutter (more quietly). As you may see, this may all be done with in my price, take a look at the Zeiss Ikon. But I don’t really like her design, a better Bessa would be honestly great.
Framelines-options should be like the current ones. So maybe a Bessa R20, Bessa R30 and Bessa R40. I’d like to have aperture priority.

Oh, I forgot, also in my Cosina's wish list is the tri-skopar 28-35-50 f/2.8 or f/3.5, compact, light, and not more than $500-700 priced 🙂...

A 20-ounce, all metal body, LT or M mount, manual RF with TTL metering, deep enough to take available collapsible lenses, AND the Jupiter-12 ...

I believe most people would agree me here that a CV full frame digital rangefinder would be a great product!!!!

You have a dis-agreer right here... I'd much rather see film products.

Not sure I see the point in a digital Bessa or ZI. It's not that they would not be good cameras, I'm quite sure they would be. The thing is that the world and his dog make digital cameras, those of us who like film cameras have rather less choice (when buying new). I think it's important to encourage innovation in film cameras, as digital will take care of itself.

Please tell me where I can buy a digital rangefinder for less than the cost of a car.

That's the point.

M mount slowish but super compact 28mm

 

[jpberger]

how about a new range of kontur finders? (black centres but illuminated frameslines)

40mm would be especially great.

 

[Krosya]

Would be nice to see a Bessa XPAN panoramic camera.

 

[tomalophicon]

Yeah, screw digital. Please don't let Voigtlander release a digital product.

 

[Sonnar2]

APS-C 35/1.4 for SONY, pref. w. AF and anti-shake-supporting

 

[Hammerklavier]

Hi everyone, this is my first post!

I hope Cosina can release a compact and fast 50mm soon. The Nokton 50mm F1.1 is just too big for street shooting and defeats the whole purpose of using a rangefinder IMO.

A TLR with 75/2.5 Heliar, electronic Shutter and exposure similar to Electro 35 GSN. Crank wind please.

Design goal should be K1000 of the TLR world. In 20 years every photographer would be proud to claim they started photography with one of these.

Yeah man, no business should ever make a product that you personally have no interest in. 🙄

 

[myM8yogi]

Still hoping for that compact 135mm ...
Still no competition out there if you want new and/or lightweight and/or modern design for less than 3,000 US$.

Sometimes I wish, Cosina would make a Bessa T2A.
I´m searching for a successor for my old "hip and long-arm shooter" Bessa L and a plus of robustness, functionality (RF and AE) without enlargment of size would be nice.
I like the "T" concept.

Tri-Elmar TTL manual focus for Nikon F. 25/40/85 f/2.8

 

[ashrafazlan]

Lusting for a fast 28mm, I've been dreaming about Leica's 24/1.4 but it's just out of my budget 🙁

There was the 28/1.9, but those are hard to find now. I'd definitely buy one if I had the chance.

 

[Ezzie]

Those of us that do have one, won't sell them. CV would have to come up with something special for me to consider ridding myself with it.
