Rangefinder Camera A rangefinder camera is a type of camera that uses a range-finding mechanism to measure the distance between the camera and the subject, allowing photographers to achieve accurate focus and sharpness in their images. Unlike single-lens reflex (SLR) cameras, which use a mirror and prism system to provide a through-the-lens (TTL) viewfinder, rangefinder cameras feature a separate optical viewfinder and range-finding mechanism that allows photographers to focus manually by aligning two superimposed images in the viewfinder until they coincide.

Rangefinder cameras are known for their compact size, quiet operation, and minimal shutter lag, making them popular choices for street photography, documentary photography, and candid shooting situations where discretion, mobility, and quick response times are valued. While rangefinder cameras offer several advantages, including precise focusing and reduced camera shake, they also have limitations compared to SLR and mirrorless cameras, such as limited lens selection, parallax error, and challenges with close-up and telephoto photography. Despite these limitations, many photographers appreciate the unique shooting experience and distinctive image quality produced by rangefinder cameras.
