This is actually two shitty cameras in one camera body #ShittyCameraChallenge

Headed into the city today with the plan of just dropping of one of my cameras for a CLA. But then I also saw this pre-loved 15mm Voigtlander with the corresponding viewfinder… …and couldn't resist. 🙈

I've had an email from Greg S who says:
