Morning all,

I’m trying to find out rangefinder cameras for left eyed person as me.

Maybe I don’t like much 35mm because of this fact and I always end with TLR or SLR in MF.

So far I found only Voigtlander Vito III that has the eye patch to the right side of the camera... do you know more options?
Preferably with a good glass


Thank you for looking,
Alex

Voigtlander Prominent/ Prominent II

My left eye also sees better.

Thank you, how is for glass wearer? Usual 50’s viewfinder?

Prominent:50 mm
The camera has a rather shallow viewfinder. Not like Zork, of course, but subjectively like Kodak Retina IIIc. https://www.cameramanuals.org/voigtland ... nent_i.pdf

Prominent II: frames 35, 50, 100, 150 mm https://www.cameramanuals.org/voigtland ... ent_ii.pdf

r u sure? why
i always shotin by left eye with any cameras
they say left eye connected with right brain
keep tryin

Any Leica from M2 and after with 50mm lens and goggled 35.
50mm framelines are small enough to see with glasses and face behind camera.

Then I was not aware of rf shooting style, I used left eye with fed-2. No problem.
Better than wasting money on some odd cameras.

I'm left handed for sure, playing football or throwing stone is with left hand, I was tough to be right handed, writing but still I grab the fork and knife as left handed, same as handling a guitar.

I'm 50mm guy, both Prominents will do fine, IIIc they say is not bad.
Now I'm waiting a IIC with bigger viewfinder (as Prominent II probably) due the 35mm frame.
Maybe that extra for the 35mm will give me more space for understanding what is going on around and preview the shot.
If IIC is fine then it's a matter of time to find a Prominent II at a reasonable price.
Thanks for the tips.

It's my pleasure)
Maxx2 had a Prominent II.
I put NOKTON 1: 1.5 / 50 on Kiev.
