Is the Bessa as solid? No. But my guess is that it will outlive you, unless you plan to use it to hammer nails. B.

Buy a good IIIf for the 21/4. Set the lens to hyperfocal f8 and you have a nice point and shoot Leica. My M2 would continue to be home for my Summicrons. So, what can I expect to pay for a good, solid, tidy IIIf? Regards Kurt - -- Kurt H.
