It's not without faults...

* I think it back-focuses slightly

* A bit of light leak at about eleven o'clock. To be expected from an old camera, will put on new seal on the back.

* Other than that, this is the only way you can use excellent Nikkor lenses in a medium format camera.

* Flare resistant, too...


And here's the hunk of chrome-laden beast in all its art-deco styling!
Is this one of the most handsome camera or what? 🙂

* Bronica S + Nikkor-P 75mm 1:2.8

I read online about how this particular model has weak gears, easy to break, hard to fix, bla.. bla.. bla...

After using it, all I can say is that you can't trust anything you read on the internet.
This thing is very smooth, and very nice to handle.
The frame spacing on the negative is perfect, and the shutter speed is a-okay.

As a bonus, you'll startle any pesky birds (or passerby) within earshot when you take the picture ... Ka-tchluk!!!
