    Cheers bambi- I've love the style of vintage cameras and have been wanting to shoot a medium format with a waist level finder for some time. So when the opportunity came along to get an slr/leaf shutter system, in mint condition, recently serviced and with a warranty- I couldn't say no.



    Here is an example of the benefit of leaf shutters - this test shot in our kitchen ( I know- not very imaginative) was shot with a single strobe synced at a 500th
