The Voigtlander BESSA III 667W Medium Format Rangefinder Camera is much like the elusive Bird-of-Paradise, rarely seen, yet highly coveted. But here you have found her, the BESSA III 667W, in all her glory! An extremely portable medium format camera, the BESSA III helps you create high-quality images that will most assuredly cause tears to fall. Load in 120mm or 220mm roll film and capture 6 x 7 or 6 x 6 shots. The COLOR SKOPAR 55mm / f/4.5 lens is an exacting tool for capturing beautiful images with this queen of the 6 x 7 rangefinders.
The manually controlled helicoid features a focusing range of 2.9 feet to infinity. The coincidence type rangefinder boasts a bright frame and automatic parallax correction. Diopter correction ensures that the BESSA is ideally suited to your vision. Other highlights include a 4-1/500 sec shutter speed, center weighted average metering, and an ISO of 25-3200 (in 1/3 steps). LED indicators alert you to battery consumption, manual exposure mode, along with aperture priority auto mode, and shutter speed.
