I remember that the Fuji 120 folders required some form of (bizarre) service
every so many rolls.....  Check with Don Goldberg if you can not find the
info through the web.

If you really want another120 camera, Hasselblad is heavy, but nice...   But
I really think an old SL66 is the way to go.  With tilting lens board so you
can get near/far DOF issues well under control.

OTOH, repair of your camera is only a Post Office away.....

Just got back 3 rolls of MF film from the lab in Barcelona, shot with my
Fuji 6x9. Of the 24 pictures in total, 14 are blank frames.
