I keep my "Magic II loaded with Velvia 100 and know the exposure spot on. It seem quite amazing the analog technology faithfully serves forty years and running.
KevinI enjoy my 'Magic II, it is quick to use because of the automatic setting and it means that you do not have to perform with a light meter when taking 'grab' shots. Lens is great too. My 'Magic I is good also but being auto only, there is no control if the need arises. For the purpose for which it was designed - 'unknowlegable' photographers - it's fine.

Going back to Rolleiflex let me give good marks to the Rolleimagic II. It offers auto exposure plus manual exposure and is remarkably good for a camera having front cell focussing with a Zenar from /Schneider.
