Hi,

I have the Bronica and I realy like it. But the vf is not better than 
Leica, at least my Bronica compared with my Leica.
But I do see it as a big Leica and use it a lot for travel stock 
shooting and assignments were I need the bigger negative.
The lenses are not very fast but very good and usable at full aperture.
For me the major drawback is the short 100. This makes it not very 
suitable for tight portraits. The thing I like most is the portability 
and ease of use.
Go for it, it's underrated top quality and relatively cheap at the moment.


Cheers,
