This is my fabulous Agfa Selectronic S, I suspect that there are not many of these about.

Very fine looking black one! I have a humble chrome example.

Last week I just found a second copy in the Recycling Shop (€ 2.50). Beautifull and works except for the rewinding, so I have to take a shot film out of the camera in a changing bag  . No idea if I can repair that issue.
Your Selectronic looks very good too.
My other one looks more used, but is completely functional.  |

Great to hear of another user, is yours a selectronic "s" or non "s" model? Mine is virtually mint but had exactly the same issue as yours, its a simple fix, remove the bottom plate then clean and re grease the mechanism. Its pretty easy to do. PM me if you have any issues, I might be able to help. Along a similar vein I also have a Silette LK that Ive converted to half frame, http://www.flickr.com/photos/johnhorsfield/4752590499/in/set-72157625116962489

I have loads! Problem is they are all in print! I dont really have a reliable scanner, but I'll see what I can do and post a few.
Its a nice thing, good german build quality, large and bright rangefinder, with aperture and shutter speed shown clearly, ultra quiet and light shutter release. The camera operates in aperture priority with no manual shutter control, the aperture ring (which is stepless by the way) is closest to the camera body, the focusing ring at the end of the lens. The lens seems to be nice and sharp with good contrast.
I havent used it in a while, I think I'll stick a film in it!

Mine are both Selectronic S models.
Thanks for the suggestion, I will try to go inside and repair the rewind switch.
They are nice compact and give a sturdy feeling. Pleasant to work with. |

You are quite a hero in tinkering!
I just found an Agfa Paramat that seems to be OK (€ 2.50), so I can retry halfformat wit an Agfa without such actions. And besides I have a nice Yashica half 17 Rapid and a Fujica half 1.9 (lightmeter stuck, rest OK). |

I can't believe that this little piece of german engineering isn't already present in this thread:
Tiny little rangefinder by spoilerhead, on Flickr
Zeiss Ikon Voigtländer Vitessa 1000SR.
In contrast to the Vitessa 500 models this one comes with a (small) rangefinder.
