Pretty Happy with my Nikon Rangefinder S2 with 50mm f1.4 lens
3 of 3 found this helpful The Nikon S2 Rangefinder camera with a 50mm Normal lens in good working condition is an example of the Japanese ability to make excellent cameras in the 1950's. The S2 was a big improvement over the earlier M, MS, and S versions. With a bigger brighter rangefinder/viewer, a rapid wind lever advance, a folding crank rewind and X flash synchronization this camera can be used easily today. Easily may be in the eye of the beholder. I grew up using film so I remember what it was like to use a totally manual camera. To take a picture first you take a light reading with your exposure meter (I use a Sekonic L-28 c2). Then set the shutter speed and f stop, compose, focus with split-image rangefinder, and press the shutter. Voila! a picture has been exposed to the film in the camera. I process my own black and white film and then digitally scan the negatives and use Adobe Photoshop and ink-jet printers for output. I bought the camera because I have always been a Nikon person but was too young to be using cameras in the 50's so I missed the Nikon Rangefinder heyday. Today I am a minor collector of Nikon Rangefinder cameras, lenses and accessories. I am also a user so I want every camera I own to actually function as it should. I quit shooting film over 10 years ago, but now I like the return to a way of taking pictures that is slower and more thoughtful. Maybe it's my age. direktdave
