I'm pretty sure the lens is good, does this have a coupled/uncoupled
rangefinder?

I think none of these have a rangefinder.

The Schneider could be a Radionar not a Xenar, but it seems more likely to be a Xenar.

If its this model, it has a nice interesting design -

It has Radioanar lens and similar construction than you did link here, but not exactly same.

No RF Bill.

This is mine, camera body is repainted and I guess finder replaced too.

Shutter has very good accuracy especially if we look it's age.

The periscope VF is interesting...did this come with a waterproof housing
so you can take hull shots of boats? Laughing

Looks well made, bet it's a shooter.

I guess this is for parallax compensation?

Looks to me same finder what you can use for RF 35mm cameras like Leica.
