Doug:

If you want great 6x6 chromes in the filed then get a Rollei 6008i SLR. 
The Hassey is great when you need TTL flash - weddings - but the 6008i
metering system can't be beat for pics that you want to take out in the
woods.  It's a lot closer to my R8 in function, and in use, than it is
to a Hassey.

Just my not so humble opinion
