An electronic shutter TLR. Quite weird. I can see the use of an electronic
shutter on the Hy6 but the whole point of the TLR to me is to be independend of
battery power and enjoy a fully mechanical produced image. Rollei should just
keep building the second generation GX. I also don't like the retro
"Rolleiflex" logo script on the new camera. What's the point?
Anyway, nice to see Rolleiflexes still build at all. Somebody in Braunschweig
must have a strong faith.
