  • "Range finder cameras are not good for low-light situations" - completely untrue: The lack of a Mirror eliminated most of the vibrations that causes image blurriness.

  • This guy is such a berk.

  • Thanks for sharing the info on antique cameras!

  • @gmaildotcom probably because of the aperture

  • well it also depends on how clean the rangefinder is. obviously if its that old and a bit dirty and dim its going to be difficult to use in low light situations

  • I have used my Super Ikonta B, for low light work inside a night club, shooting a rock band, I got good results, but my Rolleiflex is much easier to focus, and faster to use.

  • The range finder in a Zeiis Ikonta is very dark and has a small ocular just to make it worse. Generally I agrre with You but not in this case.

  • "Range finder cameras are not good for low-light situations"

    Someone doesn't have a Yashica 14!

  • Ditto to what the other fella said.

    Rangefinders are the best cameras for low-light situations.

    I don't need a flash, a tripod or even high ISO rating to get a sharp image.

    Go back to school !
