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?
