Without Prejudice.
Since I joined the list last year I have found the content to be
interesting and informative. It has varied widely and in some instances
I have felt that some topics have 'wandered' a little but still have
been a valuable fountain of wider knowledge and worth reading. Some
threads however, I have chosen not to follow, being of no interest to
me. It is the broad spectrum of users and collectors with their related
(or otherwise OT) interests and jocular comments that makes the listing
so readable, encouraging further input.
I have valued Carlos' knowledge and understanding of Rollei products and
he has taken some exceptionally fine photographs with his TLRs.
I am admire of his photographic ability and the fact that he has the
time to put it to good use and to share his experiences. Seeing his work
(and that of others of course) encourages me to make the effort and go
out and do better myself. I have enjoyed reading his contributions and
viewing his images and will miss his input.

Marc et al.
This development about using Rolleis is really shocking and sad to me.
We have discussed every technical Rollei topic and also many completely
unrelated off-topics ad nauseam. Now we finally see some members using
their equipment and discussing their pictures in relation to Rollei
technical challenges and this is being discouraged?!
I always thought this list was as much about using your Rollei gear as
it was about collecting it?
Carlos' effort of actually using his gear and posting some pictures was
very encouraging and so I started to do the same. Will I and others
have to face a reprimand too now for occasionally linking to our Rollei
images?
Also, people always have a choice not to click on the link, don't they?
Some rules for linking to pics seem okay, just like the for sale rules,
but why come down so hard on a very enthusiastic Rollei user?
Concerned.

After some years being one of the members with more
real contributions about Rollei equipment in this list
and about photography in general, I decided to
unsubscribe, I disagree with the approach about the
list that one of the moderators reminded me some
minutes ago.
The members interested about my approach on equipment
and photography know where to find me.-
Best regards
Carlos
