No doubt, no doubt.

Over Christmas I am picking up a Rollei TLR at my mother's. It was
donated, a little broke and I had it repaired and sent to her so I
woudn't have to mess with overseas postage and what-not. Remains to be
seen if I can pick up some 120 film in Western Springs ('burb of
Chicago), but we'll see. Hope so.

An older model, with a Tessar. I've always wanted a Tessar I could rely on.

Daniel
