My Rangefinders and similar.

My nice little rangefinder collection.

#1: Canon Canonet QL 25. NIce solid fixed lens rangefinder.


#2: Minolta A5. Have not used this one much.


#3: Voigtlander Vito CLR. Nice, but the meter is dead and the rf patch is very dim.


#4: Yashica J. Very easy to use rangefinder. Limited shutter speeds though.


#5: Yashica Electro 35 GSN. I found this one in the trash. Cleand it up and she works nicely.


#6: Ricoh 500GX. NIce small rangefinder. This one was given to me by a workmate. Needs the seals replaced, but otherwise she is beautiful.


#7: Neoka 35 IVS. Nice but not seen too much Japanese rangefinder.


#8: Mamiya 35 S2. Given to me by my cousin. Needs a new skin but otherwise in great condition. What do you think Ron???


The next few are not actually rangefinders, but with my accessory rangefinders attached, they become non-coupled rangefinders.

#9: Zeiss Ikon Contina. Beautiful little camera. It is a Zeiss remember.


#10: Agfa Silette. Similar to the Contina, and just as good.


#11: Kodak Retinette. Similar to the other two, except for the bottom winder. This is a fast camera to use.

Very nice Heath, now I don't feel like the only one that likes to show his collection, I wish more of the members would!

Heath, what a nice collection of rangefinders! I'm very partial to them and seeing these started me purring

Nice rangefinders, Heath.

My favorite Mamiya is the NC1000 SLR, but I have a good collection of their rangefinders, too. My favorite is the Mamiya 35-S.

I've posted a link to my pages elsewhere, but thought I would put the rangefinder page link here, just in case. The only cameras on the page that are not in my collection (yet) are:

-- Kodak Ektra
-- Adox 300
-- Mamiya Mammy
-- Mamiya prototype (this will NEVER be in my collection, unfortunately)
-- Mamiya MyRapid
   (I have one, but it's in pretty rough shape...the picture is not of my camera)
