Selling a Voigtlander Bessa R4M I bought from a user on fredmiranda a little while back. I love this camera but it just doesn't fit in my workflow the way I hoped it would.
For those that don't know, the Voigtlander Bessa R4M is a fully mechanical M-mount rangefinder with 21/35, 28, and 25/50 framelines. This camera has a built in meter that runs on a battery but a battery is not required for camera operation. As far as I'm aware, the Bessa R4M is the only M-mount camera with integrated 21mm framelines, making this camera great if you prefer wider lenses. Additionally, this camera has a max shutter speed of 1/2000th of a second giving it an advantage over many other M-mount film cameras.
This particular body has been a joy to shoot with. It is physically not in perfect shape, showing cosmetic signs of use. Functionally, however, this camera performs as expected. The viewfinder has some small bits of dust, but I've never actually noticed it while shooting and looking through the finder. The meter reads accurately and all shutter speeds have been accurate as far as I can tell.
Looking for $1500 net, I'll cover shipping. Feel free to PM with questions, thanks for looking!
