Well, 95% true. I was looking for a Zenza Bronica S2A and I saw this Bronica Deluxe at an antique shop online advertised as an S2A “untested”. I thought it was worth the risk so pulled the trigger at $250, and it works! All shutter speeds work great. The waist level viewfinder latch does not stay closed, the self-timer does not seem to work, and some pealing leatherette. Still looking for an S2A so I might end up moving this one along to a collector, but super cool piece of history!

Replaced the screen on my Automat MX, the results are awesome! Apologies, no before photos.

Bought my first Rolleiflex! $125 on Facebook Marketplace. All shutter speeds except 1s and 1/2s work great. I 3D printed a lens cap for now and ordered a bright focusing screen from eBay. Is there anything I should know? I also have a great Ricoh Diacord, so I’m curious to see if there’s any appreciable difference in image quality. Can’t wait!

I wanted to use a neck strap with my Rollei 35S and found this file online. Works like a dream!
