Epson 的 R-D1 是一款 Rangefinder 的相機，機械式的操控猶如打靶一樣，濃厚的手感、均勻的呼吸以及精準的觀察並瞄準。拿著他就像是獵人一樣、並不任由獵物來決定戰場，而是我們自己來決定戰場的位置。拍攝的時候先拉起一個過片桿，就像是萊福槍的子彈上膛。睜開雙眼讓 1 比 1 等大的觀景窗中間的對焦塊能夠合一，這個動作像極了眼睛、鏡頭、準星、目標，四點一直線的準確程度。手指頭輕輕轉動對焦環、成像透徹時，用食指第二節的腹肉按下快門。
每拍攝一張，就重新過片，繼續對焦，這些連續動作讓拍攝的速度緩慢、節奏變可以拉長。也可以拉緊快門，持續的盯緊獵物，快速且連續的拍攝，讓節奏模糊且快速。
雖然是 Epson 出品，但卻是 Voigtländer 的經典款式，重重的機身、短短的鏡頭。上頭軍艦部通通都是機械的指針，長相非常可愛，就像是機械表一樣多眼的資訊面板。鏡頭接口也僅接 Leica M mount。
精采的是他底片般的發色，實在讓他處在一個既數位又傳統的不確定的定位，但我很喜歡。
