Well - let's get a post started in this forum.

On occasion I enjoy shooting 35mm RF. As a Nikonian I have managed to procure both a used S2 and SP - in decent "user" condition.

More importantly, I've gathered some nice Nikkor RF lenses.

I also have a couple of Cosina's R2S Nikon-compatible RF bodies - with some of the nice modern features such as built in light meter etc.

While the CV bodies are not the most robust construction - they are a reliable way to enjoy some great old Nikon glass.

These bodies are out of production but still available - if you have some Nikon RF glass - I recommend the R2S as a nice "walk around camera" to enjoy using it.


Regards,

George

Hi George,

Good to hear from you once again.

Thanks for the message about the Rangefinder cameras. I have to say I'm quite ignorant of these cameras, and enjoyed reading about them. I find most film camera fascinating to one degree or another, anyway. Why don't you post an image or two that you may have taken with your camera?

Later,

Robert M. Teague
