Marc,
All I can say is that I hope my apparently feeble attempt at humor does not
trigger the end of the list!
I've been a photographer for nearly 40 years but a Rollei user for perhaps
18 months. This list and those contributing to it have most certainly
helped me come up to speed on the Rolleiflex, its use, history, and a whole
lot more.
The current contributions as well as the archives are a valuable resource.
I thank you and everyone who has contributed his time and knowledge.
Jeff Kelley
