2002年11月23日 · The Bessa R has a metering cell that looks at the "18% grey pre shutter". Light is metered of this grey "pre shutter". Some lenses with real deep rear elements will work ok; ie not hit anything; BUT they will obscure the metering cell a …

2009年8月14日 · One is a Bessa T in black (for $220), the other is a Bessa R in olive green ($250). The cameras are used, but are in good shape. The shop has a pretty good selection of lenses as well, and I was looking at buying a wide angle (Voigtlander 15mm 4.5, or 21 4, with separate finders).<br>

2007年7月13日 · To date I haven't done much indoor photography with the Bessa as flash . metering confuses me. What I shoot indoors tends to be on my olympus OM4 in . aperture priority or the old digital canon s30. Now I would really like to use . the flash with the Bessa R. My question is, how can I use the camera meter and integrate the flash light.

2023年1月27日 · The Bessa R may be somewhat hyped today, but is really based on a very cheap Cosina camera which was good value in its day but was never made with the intention of long life and repair. A Barnack Leica would probably cost about the same to have repaired but would be a much better long term investment.

2003年7月27日 · The Bessa R here has required adjustment several times; so much that I have the hot shoe always removed; and the top taped. There is an adjustment for infinity; have never seen anybody talk about the close up adjustment for linearity. I doubt there is any arm length adjustment; ie gain of the rangefinder adjust.

2007年5月2日 · If I were to upgrade from Bessa R to a higher-end Bessa, I would have to make. two choices:<br> First, I'd have to choose between the two available flavours: A and M. The A has. an electronically controlled shutter, also offering an aperture-priority. automatic mode, while the M is fully mechanical. Both have their pluses and. minuses.

2005年12月5日 · on Bessa R. what I notices is when i put the shutter speed at 1. second, at anytime, with any aperture setting and iso setting, the. meter always gives me the "-". for example, with the same metter. reading on f8 and 1/125 for correct exposure, I turn the dial towards. slower shutter speed. As you can image, I got all "+" for

2004年2月24日 · Jim, the Bessa R you bought comes with a 35, 50, 75 and 90 framelines. What that means is that inside the camera there are frames for 35mm, 50mm, 75mm, and 90mm lenses. The 28mm lens is kinda hard to framed with the built in camera framelines, you kinda have to imagine in order to frame the picture you want.

2010年11月1日 · It's a Bessa R, famous for having misaligned rangefinders just because a breeze blew by. I heard of the cameras leaving stores with the RF in order, and arriving to the buyers already out of whack. That's the only explanation that comes to mind. Perhaps it's time for you to find out how to align the RF yourself.

2006年4月9日 · The Bessa R I have from 2000 feels decent, not really too shabby. It is an early model, mine works and meters with a 28mm F6 Orion-15 LTM lens. After using this combo for a year it came out ont he web that this combo wont work, maybe they changed the lens flange, meter area abit during the production run.
