Dear list,
I recall that range finder design of no mirror makes it possible to attach
the lens with its rear element very close to the shutter. This, I was told,
benefits the design of wide angle lenses. As such we have Hassy SWC, which
is a body designed for the lens, and probably that's why rangefinders such
as M6, G2 and Hexar are still in demand.
My questions:
What really is the benefit of being able to put lens as close as possible to
the film (shutter)?
Is it simplicity of designing the lens or is there a natural law prohibiting
certain quality if the lens is placed longer than certain distance from the
film?
