A thing of beauty

Fujinon F2 23mm (35mm equivalent) lens. Optical viewfinder with information overlay; flick the red switch to change to an electronic viewfinder.

A rather hard to access menu button and a very unnecessary RAW button, to turn RAW shooting on and off.

Set your aperture with the control ring on the lens.

Set the shutter speed and exposure compensation; then press the button. Only one user-defined function button, and ISO control tucked away in the menus.

It may not be perfect; but it is certainly beautiful.

The Voigtlander is something special; but it did cost almost as much as the Fuji…

Undeniably gorgeous. Love those dials. Just imagine if it had a M43 mount on the front…

but a RAW button..? ludicrous. They may as well have put a ‘Firmware Update’ button on the case.

But it does have an ‘FN’ button, useful for all those times in Pattaya where you get pissed off with some dickhead.

Excellent! I have ordered an Integrated Airborne Pod Weapon System. Now on eBay looking for a helicopter.
