The Mijonju Show - I love Rangefinder Cameras

Probably the Longest Video I've ever made, so get a cup of coffee and some tidbits sit back and have a 15mins break by listening silly mijonju talk about his love for rangefinder cameras.

@Mijonju do you have a GOMZ Leningrad Rangefinder? I just subscribed and havent seen all of your videos... Digitalrev sent me :D

[Mijonju]

@Nicaud92 is that like the zorki4 camera?

dont have it sorry :)

[nationofpomation]

Man, all of what you said is so true. I don't like SLRs because they feel so impersonal. Also, have you thought about maybe getting a Voiglander Nokton? They're a lot cheaper.

[Mijonju]

@nationofpomation 9:20, there's my Nokton f1.1:)

1:28 thats the f0.95 50mm, quite legendary aswell

[orangefreak06]

Will you buy a leica noltilux? :D

[Mijonju]

@orangefreak06 I will, but my wallet wont :(

Hey Mijonju, I wanted to send a message to you via YouTube messaging, about my Photography Project that I am undertaking. However I found out that you can only receive messages sent by your friends on YouTube. So I was wondering if you time, could you add me as a friend (temporarily) and be able to read my message as it will help me a lot in my Street Photography Project.

(Can everyone else please like this comment so that it can be seen and read by Mijonju)

Thanks You

Rubayeth

Does anyone know what Mijonju is holding up at 3:48?  A cropper? What is it for?

Thanks!

@musguelha14 am i suppose to give a fuck how much it costs? all i asked was the name of it. but thanks

[musguelha14]

@10fame254 Leica M9. First of all, you don't deserve it if you didn't even know the name. And second, it's 7000 dollars.

@71golfwood The Zorki 4 is great for the price ($40-50). It doesn't have a light meter though. The Konica C35 and Yashica Electro 35 are good too.

[Timossachenverschick]

I just love my Yashica electro 35 :D I picked it up at an antique store in Vienna for around 15€....And it´s just amazing

[10fame254]

what was the camera you were talking about at around 7 min?

[71golfwood]

I only really have DSLR experience but I want to experiment with a rangefinder. What rangefinder would you recommend for someone who just wants to have fun with it and learn something along the way. Hopefully something that is affordable and fairly accessible. Konica C35?? How does the C35 differ from the C35 FD? Cool show you got going, keep it up!

[rainulous]

I need to get a rangefinder. I've been looking for some russian leica copies like the zorki4 and kiev4am. I also need to get some film for my polaroid 320.

[U23Drocs]

I got my first Rangefinder two days ago, Its a Yashica Mg-1, I need a battery to have the full range of shutter speeds because the old mercury battery in it is dead. Luckily Radioshack carries an equivalent replacement battery
