The Leica Noctilux f/1 is a good example and that cost about USD$7,000 a piece. But as with all gadget freaks, I often wonder what happens to it once you spend that sort of money.

Going back to Rangefinders
What I like about it is the experience. You see, there are no zoom lenses to start with. Everything is RF focused, thus you can’t have a zoom lens for this. There is no instant playback. No CF card and you actually have to wait for the images to be developed before you can see them!

Rangefinder Replacement?
The Rangefinder is a quirky camera. There is a small market for them and this is what keeps Voigtlander and Leica in business. But this is a slowly fading market as less people are taken up the features which have long been superceded by the likes of the Micro Four Thirds system
