I love to shoot with a rangefinder, they're quiet, small and allow the photographer to create great images. Oh sure you can get nice photos with a SLR but they're not as fun to use as a rangefinder. If you shoot documentary work with a rangefinder than this group is for you... and by rangefinder I mean any of the Leica's but also the new digital wonders like the Sony RX1, NEX or Olympus compact system camera. Film or digital are welcome. Birds of a feather flock together.
