Bessa 66 Test: Metal Sculpture

Given a German 'Voigtlander BESSA 66' with un-coated lens which is a bit 'hazy' but I cannot get into it to deep clean. Most negs on roll were dense and 'Foggy looking' . This was good though - base of Metal Sculpture in our Town Hall Grounds.

  1. Yes
Nice surprise! If this was posted with an equipment description of a modern rig, I'm certain no one would have guessed it was wrong!
 
Which version of the Bessa 66 - aka the Baby Bessa? With the folding finder, or the optical finder?
I really like mine - just about the best camera I've found for anyone who is both left handed and left eye dominant.
 
I believe that those qualify for the "Baby" designation as well.
That is the same as mine.
Just curious - are you right or left handed? Right eye or left eye dominant? What do you think of the handling.
