I'm looking for a fixed lens rangefinder to replace a Canon AE-1 that I recently sold. I used the 50mm f/1.8 more than any other lens by a huge margin, and so the fixed lens rangefinders in the 45-50mm range will be perfect for me, but I'm not quite sure which to get. The features that I need are:
Fully manual controls (with metering, so no QL17 GIII)
Built in light meter
Minimum focusing distance no more than 3' or .9M
45-50mm lens
f/2 or lower
No more than around $150 in good shape
Here are the ones I've found that fit my criteria:
Yashica Electro 35
Minolta Hi-Matic 9
Konica S2
Out of these, which would be the best choice? Are there any others I've missed?
