Well I'm much tempted by interchangeable lens RF.
But I also know I won't but any 1000 dollars camera just to try if I
like it or not.
So, basicaly anything good to play a bit would do it. If
interchangeable, then fine, if not.. that's it.

Get yourself the old standby, a Cannonette GIII 1.7. You will probably have to
refoam the back, not a hard job. For $50 or so you can find out if you like
rangefinder cameras, I love them. Or if you are willing to spend that thousand
get a Leica M3, in some ways they are nicer than the new
If you want to play with a rangefinder 35mm camera for the experience
of seeing what it's like, any of the Canon Canonets or Minolta
HiMatics are available for nearly nothing and have decent lenses.
The Cosina/Voigtländer RFs are based on the same chassis that was
sold as the Nikon FM10,
Mmm thanks.
I just remeber I got an old Agfa Super Silette-L from the grandfather
of my wife.
I never tried it (yet).
I'll put a film in it and see what it can do.

Anyone with experiences with those Bessa cameras? Good or bad ?

A bit odd to use, the wind lever is on the bottom, but overall, a nice
little camera, dating from the mid 1950s.
I saw Voigtlander rangefinder at my local reseller which seemed quite
cheap (for a rangefinder). I understand those are manufatured by
Cosina.
