A few weeks back I picked up a Voigtländer Vitoret DR on the flea market for next to nothing. The lens seemed super nice and it's a fully mechanical camera with a decoupled selenium light meter that was still reactive. It's at least 54 years old.
After I cleaned it inside out and roughly checked if the light meter readings made any sense I took it with me on a walk through Vienna and on a trip to my sister. I just got the scans back and I gotta say I am very positively impressed by the image quality. Amazing camera for the money.
Great stuff!
I have 2x old Voigtlanders: A Perkeo I MF folder and a Vito ii 35mm which is also a folder
The build quality on both of them is incredible.
And I got them for about £20 each in great condition
