Figured I would try out something new this summer, so this bad boy just showed up in the mail. The Bessa-L is a sans-rangefinder, L39 Mount, 35mm body. I have it with the 21mm, there is also a more pricy 15mm lens available . The camera is a "true range finder" in other words you need to guess the range of the object you are focusing on. Apperently the original idea was that the camera was to generally be used with wide angle lenses so that pretty much everything is usually in focus. This makes accurate focus less necessary. I'm hoping the camera drives me to obsess a bit less and have more fun (perhaps just think about things less). I really like my Rollei-35 and this is in a similar vein.
More to come.
