Voigtlander Vito II
Yes, I know that I love Voigtlander cameras! They made all sorts of cameras, but the Vito line up was their true Zenith hour. It is one, if not the most successful German camera ever. This Vito II is a post war version of the original Vito, the very first Voigtlander for 135 film. This one is in superb condition, it is almost 70 years old, yet, as usual, it works a treat. This one comes with the top of the range CumpurSynchro Rapid shutter, not often seen in a Vito, given Voigtlander's affection for Prontor shutters.
This Vito II is a scaled down version of the Bessa I, still very cute. The camera is truly diminutive, being a folding camera has its advantages. The lens is the famous Skopar 50/3,5 recalculated for color photography and with an acclaimed reputation.
The camera is really sweet in its commands, everything works smoothly and precise, this a high qualitycamera. Needless to say, the fit and finish are top notch.
This one came with some accessories that are really cool, the original Voigtlander yellow filter (to enhace contrast in B&W), a lovely metal lens hood, a clip on selenium meter and a Focar lens that bings the minimum focusing distance down form 1 meter to 0,5 m. Yes Dan, this is the Voigtlander for you!
