People won't give most cameras a second look. A Rollieflex is the exception. Nothing says relax and smile like a classic TLR. Strangers stop and ask, "Is that real?" I can't explain it. Referring to the response, that is. Although the question itself -- and I've been asked it many times -- always puzzles me. I always want to reply, "no, it's just for show. In my other hand, on the other hand, is a very real device called a Luna Pro that emits a powerful death ray."

Normal used prices is 500 bucks for a body without a bright screen 200 bucks for a back. 800 for a lens. New price would be ten times that. A grand for the lens a couple grand for the camrea and a near grand for the back. Mark William Rabiner _______________________________________________ Leica Users Group.
