A new acquisition, a Leitz Leica R4, manufactured in Portugal in 1983. This was the second model of reflex camera developed in cooperation with Minolta (actually based on Minolta XD-7). As the Leica R-Lenses are still very pricy these days, I started to test this camera using an adapter from the Bay, that enable this camera to carry my Hasselblad Medium Format Zeiss lenses.

Here is a test using the Planar 80mm (standard length for Hasselblad) becoming a real 80mm with the Leica.
