Rangefinder:
It is very important to understand what exactly is a rangefinder is. A rangefinder is a type of camera that is small but has replaceable lenses. Leica was the first manufacturer that produces a 35mm camera. When taking photos it also has a quieter shutter and low vibration because it doesn’t have a mirror. Rangefinders also use optical viewfinders that don’t go through the lens and in this way what you see in the viewfinder is not actually what your lens sees. But the question is why should you use rangefinders?
Especially for a street photographer, the benefits of a rangefinder are its size and ease of use. As compared to modern DSLR, it is quiet and easy to use because you don’t have to deal with a lot of complicated functions and settings.
