If you want to dabble in film rangefinders and do not wish to spend Leica-type
money, then a new Cosina/Voigtlander (sold by Cameraquest in the US) will beat
any of those old junkers, takes excellent CV or Leica M lenses and is very
reliable. I have a fully mechanical R2M as the backup in my Leica M8 bag.
