Ideal Rangefinder - Analog Focus Device - Film Photography Podcast (audio)

Segment from Film Photography Podcast 116 - http://filmphotographyproject.com/pod... Leslie Lazenby's notes: "Quite a few of my old cameras require the user to estimate focal distance and to set that guess manually. For the most part, I have avoided close up and wide open f/stops to help when I am off. I have been looking at electronic focus devices typically used in construction, and found that not all of them worked in the small increments I wanted and some had issues with full daylight etc. AND of course the cost. 100 plus dollars. Well this little rangefinder came in a box with some mixed photo accessories. It is a wonderful little range finder as a great price of about 10-30 on ebay. Not sure how it measured up with the Kodaks and Voighlanders etc of the era, but it has stood the test of time and is still bright and accurate and CHEAP. Most are found still in the box with the instructions, I think this is due to the fact that is doesn't have a mounting shoe, strictly hand held so folks stored it in the original box. Stick your eye in the whole, turn the dial, overlap the images and read the distance. It works great, reads the distance from 2. 5 feet to 50."
