Leica Contax
What’s the least threatening-looking camera?
I want to follow in the footsteps of H. Cartier-Bresson and capture The Decisive Moment.
Seems to me I’ll be more likely to accomplish this if I don’t use a camera that looks like a bazooka!
I know HC-B used a Leica but they’re a bit spendy for me.
I’ve assembled a list of affordable cameras that I hope won’t scare the bejeezus out of the locals.
The only criteria? Must be 35mm *film* and have swappable lenses.
Which would you choose? Or none of the above?
1. Voigtlander Bessa R3A … grey
2. Nikon F80 … black (can’t find a silver one)
3. Oly OM-2 … chrome
4. Minolta CL/CLE
5. Contax G-2
TIA for your help!
Nah, go for a box brownie ! They’ll never see it coming.. snicker snicker.
