I love the mechanics of it and the way Rollei seemed to think the camera could be "all things to all people", when clearly there is no camera which can assume that mantel. Fun, but not really recommended: though I found it quite a nice format at a wedding: vertical shots from a Rollei ;-) Cheers On 14/12/2006, at 8:03, Steve Unsworth wrote: > I can sense myself weakening.
