Link: Epson R-D1 — the world’s first digital rangefinder camera

Macfilos remembers Epson R-D1 — the world’s first digital rangefinder camera:

The Epson R-D1 is definitely a ground-breaking camera. The world’s first digital rangefinder camera with M-Mount and an APS-C CCD sensor with 6.1 Megapixel resolution was released in 2004.

It was before Leica did even release the M8. And much less expensive.
