For this video, Greg and I drove all the way out to the holy city of Wetzlar in order to do a comparative review of two cameras from the 1970s, namely the Leica R3 and the Minolta XE-1. The Leica R3 came out of a collaboration between the German Ernst Leitz company (which later became Leica Camera AG) and the Japanese camera manufacturer Minolta. The two cameras share many parts. Time for an in-depth comparison.
