[rollei_list] Re: rollei_list Pentacon Six WLF

During the sixties I actually knew a busy Los Angeles professional photographer who used Pentacon 6. To make it work, he had to own 3 camera bodies; one in hand, one in the shop and one in transit. When Pentax introduced its 67 model, he jumped into that and didn't look back. I believe he shot stills for several studios.

ANYTHING would be better than the Pentacon WLF, beautiful looking (IMO) but almost useless. FWIW my Arax 60 has a very good WLF--because its a close copy of the one on a late Rolleiflex TLR. Although some late model Kiev 60s come with a copy of a Hasselblad WLF).

I have the "modern" Exakta 66 - the replacement for
the Pentacon 6. It's similar in many respects to the
P6, but with a very much brighter screen and a more
usable WLF.
