I have several Rolleiflex cameras, but not the FW. My question is which camera
can be more trusted not to be off wrt focusing. I once had my 2.8D on a trip
with me (on the plane), and the mirror inside the camera moved somehow, and my
photos were unsharp. The FW may have a similar weakness, when bumped. The SWC
may have a more solid contruction wrt focus mechanism. Am I right?
