Voigtlander Bessa R3-M Body only
Like all Voigtlanders, the Bessa R3-M was created with the traditional photographers, who wants total control over their photography, in mind. The Bessa R3-M is similar in appearance to all the other models but has 40mm, 50mm, 75mm and 90mm frames in the viewfinder/rangefinderr. The R3-M has a fully mechanical shutter which will operate at all speeds in case of (rare) battery failure. Due the different shutter there is no aparture priority mode.
The vertical travel metal focal plane shutter has speeds from 1-1/2000th sec as well as a "B" (time exposure) setting. The TTL (Through the lens) exposure meter provides accurate exposures even under demanding light conditions.
Focusing is achieved by the extremely bright rangefinder/viewfinder combination. This is possibly the easiest system to use for candid photographs under dim light conditions. If you are an enthusiastic and traditional photographer you can not go past the Bessa range of cameras.
