Carlos,
At least Fritz Henle didn't think of the SL66 just as a studio
camera. It replaced his TLRs quite often in later years and he liked
the added flexibility with exchangeable lenses and the bellows
movement. Very little is differently from a TLR really as the focus
in the same familiar spot as is the shutter release and rewind
crank. I have used it as a "field camera" quite a bit and lov ethe
ability to go down to a few centimeters close-up op a mushroom, or
flower without any addtional gear (except perhaps reversing the 80mm
Planar on the same bayonet). Ingenious design!

...From this point of view, a
Hasselblad 500 C or a Rollei SL 66 wouldn't be "studio cameras", but
the term evolved and the Rollei SL 66 designers thought it as "studio
camera" mainly, I read it in the Report 2.
