PERSONAL NOTES

The Ricoh 35 is odd looking; it looks like the Kodak 35, but it's better in many ways.

The camera is easy to use: simply set the shutter speed and aperture, focus while looking in the finder and shoot.

The finder is not as great as a Leica, but it's much better than many rangefinders from the 70s.

It also have a good build quality. Much more durable than any russian rangefinders.

The only drawback is that it has an attached lens, you cannot choose the lens of your choice.

I have to admit that for the price this little rangefinder is hard to beat.

CONCLUSION

Probably the best rangefinder you can get for your money.
