To all

Thank you for looking and comenting. 

Dan, as Mark says in our days many people has no idea how it work a 
Rolleiflex, others look at it and ask me how old it is? but you can point 
your camera to your subject quite easy and the people don?t see the 
?agressivity? when a camera is on the eyes level, in addition the Rolleiflex 
is really a silent shooter, even more than a M3, yhe only inconvenient for 
me is focusing precisely.
