Quiet, fast and > efficient. Mine is pretty darn quiet, Ted. A lot quieter than my MD-12 for my Nikon FE-2 and FM. I just fired them off side by side. BIG I'll give you, but not loud. Darn quiet! Just not silent. Mark Rabiner And I got mine new for $650 4 years ago and it has worked perfectly with never any problems. It makes for a nice balance with the new 135 3.4 or a 90 just like in the world of SLR.... A winder helps balance the heavier glass.
