An Olympus XA would fit the bill if you can find one for a decent price
Otherwise Olympus Trip 35s are great (and I'm selling one at the moment ;))
Cannonet QL17, Olympus 35RC/D, all also good shouts and can sell for around that mark. The problem with that bracket of camera is some people try and sell them for crazy money to catch out people who aren't paying attention so make sure to look at how much they're selling for on ebay or something as a guide price :)

You can get the less famous Yashica rangefinders for less than £50 easily I reckon. I got a decent condition Minister D from eBay for £38, and I got a J for £14 from Oxfam (the former was designed for a defunct battery but there are alternatives/adapters and that only powers the light meter anyway). The Campus is always cheap too.

Sorry if it's been covered a million times in the thread, but I'm after something smaller I can chuck in my bag. I've got a Pentax ME, and a Canon EOS for slr duties but I've never owned a rangefinder or something like that. Non interchangeable prime lens is fine, 35mm flim, got to be f2.8 or faster and build > weight.
Looking sub £50 ideally as I'll let the older kids use it too and don't want to get all precious about it. Being brought up on Zenith slrs as a kid I'd like something Russian or German, but not a must.
Can anyone recommend something to keep an eye out for, lesser known / less cool cameras that won't carry a hipster tax?
