INTRODUCTIONThe Voigtlander Brilliant is a medium format TLR film camera made in Germany around 1937. BEST SUITED FOR:
PERSONAL NOTESThe Voigtlander Brilliant is a nice little TLR, not very complicated, but quite limited in terms of shutter speeds. Image quality is below normal, there is some vignetting. There is a small compartment inside the camera to store a filter and a lightmeter. You install the lightmeter on top of the viewing lens and when looking through the finder, you see around which light value you are. Then you set your aperture and speed accordingly. CONCLUSIONThe Voigtlander Brilliant is not a great TLR, but is slightly better than its copy, the Lubitel. PHOTO SAMPLESVERDICT:
