Hi all

Thanks for all the help and good information.

Well, first, yes, the old style has the nostalgia in it for me. But, not sure that is all one need to buy something....But, still, the idea of a old camera in 120mm is getting back to me.

Don, Thank you for the good information. Yes, it is expensive......it is. But, so is ALL makers from that age. I will take your advice and look around for something like a 500C/M and up, like a 501 C.

But, then I also hear the words of a coworker, who say: No, get a Rolleifix!!!
Witch brings me over to yelvertoft and his words.

Yelvertoft, thanks for the info. you use the camera a lot? How old is it?
As you say, the price keeps you`r mind in focus when taking pictures. Pricy, but that is just the way it is.....

I do know and understand that a professional will take better photos than me using a Hasselblad and the professional using a low priced 135 camera.

I am not looking nor hoping to be a professional, I am seeking the good old style, feeling and quality of that old cameras. Be it a Hasselbald or a Rollo.

Haver to say, the Rollo is good looking to.

Yes, I have my mind set on a European maker.
So, as you say yelvertoft, I will seek around, try and find out more, before I buy something.

Thanks for helping me all
