The Epson R-D1, based on the Voigtländer Bessa, is the first (2004) digital rangefinder camera ever made. It accepts Leica M lenses (bayonet mount) and, through the use of an adapter, L (screw mount) lenses.

The model R-D1s from 2006 evidently used the same hardware but with some enhancements to the camera firmware. The 2009 Epson R-D1x revision adds support for SDHC cards, a larger 2.5" LCD and a detachable handgrip.
