Wich ones do you prefer ? ( I mean , the one you use frequently)I don't own one ,yet . I'd go for a 35mm 1.8 Yashica CC , but they are too "cheap" for me Laughing
If you use another ,and can't select from above please make suggestions, to modify the pool.

I like Yashica 35GL most, then CC and GX.
But Canonet QL 1.9 and 1.7 are very nice to use too.

Better to simple ask, which one, not maker specific to find a good one, all maker made budget level and higher level ones. Some of them has big hype and less IQ like KONICA S3 and other has NO hype and stunning IQ like Konica C35 Wink Revuenon 400SE sound is not good right ? but one of the best from them etc.

This one. Fully automatic but unbelievably good lens.

I had a Olympus 35RC for quiete some time. Nice little camera but I switched to a Rollei 35 which is even smaller. I don't know if it counts here becaus the Rollei has no rangefinder but for my purpose zone focusing is good enough.

Interesting.... I have a Ricoh 500G. Not used it yet though..... I planned on using it with B/W film in it, for occasional trips to the city. Today I received a 500GX. This is a beauty! So that one will take the place of the 500G I guess..... The seller also sent me a Revue 400S with it... Now I read Attila's post: the Revue is really THAT good?? Mine is a 400S.. not SE. There was also an Agfa Optima 335 included, that looks like fun too!

true, I got my XA for bargain price and that counts Laughing but they are getting more and more expensive as people discover its qualities
