Smile The choose of Rangefinder camera

I am interested in purchasing a rangefinder camera and after several days of researching on the web I find Bessa R2A, Zeiss Ikon ZM and Hexar RF may good for me. I do not want to spend too much on camera body and I know the Bessa R2A is the cheapest one but I am going to use VM 35/f1.4 or VM 50mm/f1.1 lens, so I am afraid of the focusing accuracy of R2A cannot fulfill the requirement of shooting with 50mm/f1.1 wide open in close range. In addition, I wear a pair of glassed which have thick lens so it may be diffcult for me to use the Ikon's 0.74x viewfinder with a 35mm lens. The Hexar RF seems to be the only choice but I have heard of that the shutter delay of Hexar RF is considerably long. I am quite confused about what should I choose, can anyone provide some advice? Thank you very much.
