There is no doubt the FX has very good price comparatively, it costs
about $5000, a Hasselblad 503 CW with A12 back and Planar 2.8/80 lens
costs almost $7000, a Mamiya 645 AFD III with film back and the
cheapest Mamiya AF 2.8/80 lens costs about $6000 and a 35mm RF camera
Leica M7 "starter set" with Summicron 2/50 lens costs about $6500, the
FX is the cheapest one with the Planar name on the lens or without it.
There is no GX with the classic strap connector Jan, if you find one,
it's the FX. GX models have the SL 66 strap holders style or 6000
cameras strap holders style (the newer GX).
Some designer at the factory thought if they were putting the F strap
holders for the FX, why not the Rolleiflex Original and Standard
script style for the camera name.
