I hate you

Hi Markus, welcome to this weird but cosy place and did you start a bag collection as well 🙂

Indeed. In addition to my two Crumplers, an mclassic is on the horizon. Is that called BAS?

Markus:

But what caught my attention was your Rollei SL66. I had two (or was it three!) bodies, the 50mm, 80mm and 150mm Zeiss lenses, and several backs. You are right, AWESOME cameras, but my backs seemed to all suffer from winding failure... gears would slip or something, and I would get slight frame overlaps or outright failure to advance. Have you experienced this? But the lens stage tilt and reversible lenses for macro was great for the work I did. Except for the back reliability problem, better than Hassy IMO.

Trius,

no, I never encountered any problems with the backs. I got two of them and both work flawlessly. Sorry to hear about your problems. And you're right, I would not trade it for a Hasselblad.
But enough now, before we get kicked for being off topic 😉
