@@SamuelStreetlife new slogan for those who almost got a Leica haha

Bessa users unite! I have the T, the quirky one that only has a rangefinder window, and you must suppy a hot shoe viewfinder for your lens focal length. But I love it! The rangefinder is bigger and brighter than any you'll get inside a viewfinder, and I shoot zone focus a lot on the street without the rangefinder distracting me by suggesting a different focus than I've chosen (at f8-f11 and a 35mm lens, who cares?). Also the meter is at a glance down, rather than having to bring it up to my eye. Even the loud shutter has its charm! (?)

Bro, that shot of Alex on the prowl and snooping for the shot in the opening - I died.

Enjoying the banter and dynamics between you, Alex and Ulysses

Bessa cameras went for cheap couple of years ago but are now harder to find and prices went up significantly. Since Leica M film camera prices went through the roof, the Bessa ones came behind and experience the same trend now. IMO the Bessa R4M model with the 21 mm frame lines is probably the best addition to a Leica.

Love the shutter sound!

That Bessa R2a is super nice!

Haha love the episode, Bessa R is great 😍

Bought an Bessa R2 Olive in the early 2000s. In 2020 I sold it used for quite a bit more than it cost me back then. Used film camera market is crazy!

Ya I know right? tbh I could probably resell this camera for more than what I bought it for. That's why I knew it was a safe-ish buy. Besides me actually liking the camera and wanting to use it regardless.

@@AlexOnStreets I loved that camera. I had it with me on interrail all acros Europe, and fed it a steady diet of Tri-X 400. Had two Voigtländer lenses. A Nokton 1.5, and an Ultron 1.7. Ah, the memories. It was hard selling it, but I'm all digital now and I'm done with film :)

Just bought the r4A. I really enjoy aperture priority mode n the wide angle frameline. And the other advantage I get from the camera is that the frameline is about .5 magnification which I can use without issue with my glasses on

Always looking forward to your videos hehe

I got a Bessa R2M a few years ago and have since added the winder bottom to it which is pretty cool. Bessas are now worth 3X what I paid (not that I would sell)

“It’s like a cle” “REALLY??” “it’s SIMILAR to a CLE”

What camera would you recommend between a minolta cle or voigtlander bessa r2a? I'm having trouble deciding.

Great camera.. I had one, but replaced it with an M6 TTL. I guess that'll be next 🙃

They're still available?? 😳 I can't even find them on eBay just one or two available on ebay!!

Bessa gang 🤘🏼

Whats the camera strap he’s using on the bessa?

What can you make of a camera that is part Nikon and part imitation Leica and calls itself Voigtlander?

could i shoot with a 21mm on this camera? how would i use the frameline settings with it?

Can u make a video with some mini speedlights???

Is that lens funleader 18mm f8? 05:23

the good thing about my r2 is i dont fear breaking it (rip my rf35) very, very competent camera and can use the zeiss zm lenses that are just *MUAH*

Aperture priority alone makes the Bessa R2A/R3A/R3A far more agile and versatile than any Leica M film camera (apart from the M7). Just set your aperture, zone focus and use it like a point-and-shoot.

That has to be the sexiest thumbnail on KZread. Nice pick up Alex but Leica has the greatest rangefinder of all time lol jk. Just shows you don’t need to spend thousands to enjoy photography.

imagine putting the camera inside the bag for most of the time.
