Here's a neat 1950s all-metal rangefinder of which I don't see anything about in the forum: The Minolta V2. It has the distinction of offering a 1/2000s leaf shutter, although not at full aperture for that speed. The handling is nice and the f2 lens snappy.

Yes, the V2 is a beautiful rangefinder. They don't show up very often for sale.

Cameras. I has it.
Very clean lines on that camera, reminiscent of the SR-1 with that stepped top plate.
Good photos! Congratulations on a nice camera.
