There are a lot of accessories out there for your bessa rangefinder. Some OEM, like the triggerwinder or VC Meter, and some 3rd party like Luigi&#039;s cases and LeicaGoodies products. <br /><br />How are your bessa&#039;s &quot;tricked out&quot;?<br /><br />My Bessa L has a CV sidegrip and a black/green leather wriststrap from Gordy&#039;s.<br /><br />Both my R2 and R2a have trigger winders. One also has the side strap and quick release from LeicaGoodies.<br /><br />All of my Bessas have a spare set of batteries affixed to the film door with electrical tape.&nbsp;

Mine&#039;s just plain. Or should I say &quot;naked&quot;?<br /><br />DISCLAIMER: The following were shot with (*gasp*) digital tools on digital media. Apologies. <br /><br /><br /><br />

My two R&#039;s, and two L&#039;s, have the Side Grips.&nbsp; I have to remove these when I want to use the Ball Grip on my L&#039;s.&nbsp; My Telemetro has the Trigger Winder, and the Vertical Grip. Love this combination.&nbsp; I have Double-Shoes for all three camera types (A, B &amp; C). My R&#039;s have modern Nikon rubber eyepieces attached (works great).&nbsp; Recently got a &quot;Leicagoodies STEER&quot; to use on my Canon 1.2 :-*&nbsp; This works very well, like it was made for it.&nbsp; Particularly nice on the Telemetro 8)&nbsp; Have the CV low angle finder, and the 12, 21, and 25 lenses. Haven&#039;t used it much, one of the few original L accessories ;D&nbsp; <br />For inside shooting with the L&#039;s, I use a Stroboframe Bracket, and a Vivitar 283 flash, with a Photoflex inflatable &quot;Softbox&quot;.&nbsp; Works great :&nbsp; Also all my Bessas have a Hama Film-Memo attached to the rear doors

I&#039;m boring.<br />I only have a soft-release fitted. period. I use a P/S wrist strap thru one eyelet. I don&#039;t use the supplied case, lens cap or strap.<br />

My T has a Luigi strap and soft-release. I&#039;ve been thinking of getting a trigger-winder for it but I&#039;m not sure it would be worth getting.

I had the same price issue, but ended up getting it in the end. I put my thoughts down here: http://www.cosina-voigtlander.com/content/view/21/28/
