Oh man, the 40mm VF!!! That's a gem!

Oh man, the 40mm VF!!! That's a gem!

It's a rebranded Cosina product I think.

Both the hoods and VF are by Cosina Voigtlander BUT stamped Rollei.

Hey fellas, been shooting more MF than RF for the past half a year -
Finally took my trusty Hexar with CV Ultron 28mm f/2 out for a spin.

The most pratical, modern & advanced RF up to date, not known to many but appreciated by the few who had tried it.
I was thinking of getting one back as well.

Fastest loading, fastest shooting RF around if you dont include the Contax G series.

I did a review on RFSG as well for the Hexar:

When set to MF and shot using zone focus, it works just like its RF cousin...

Hi to all. I've got a Super Rare Nikon-I, circa 1948/1949. I understand it was an original Singapore Shipment Nikon. Serial no. 609589, with matching number on the inside of back cover.

Wow, I've never seen a blue Nikon One before! Veeeery cool. Do you actually shoot with it?

Shutter & lens seems ok for it's age. But, no, I've not done any shooting on this rare bird. Am considering selling it tho. This is my last & rarest Nikon Rangefinder Camera collection left.

Hello All

I found a Minolta hi-matic 7 rangefinder from my dad's closet
Now i want to put in a new battery but the shape of the original one is so weird, I cant seemed to locate an exact size.
You know we have number codings for different size batteries but the number printed on the batt, I doubt it exist now.
So can any kind soul who is holding onto a similar rangefinder please let me know what kind of battery to use?

I did not check if the camera is still functioning (or not), been bz with work. The lens seemed cloudy, not very sure where i should bring this for CLA too. I hold a m4/3 camera so I have absolutely no experience with this vintage camera..

Will try to post a picture of the camera here
