I've had several Yashicas in the past. Their biggest negative in my opinion
is the current very accessible price of Rolleis. I agree with Nick the user
feel of a camera is important and the Yashica does have an aluminum tin foil
feel when compared to a Rolleiflex.

My 124G gears have gone - I can't be bothered to get it fixed, as Rolleis
are just so much nicer to shoot with IMHO - it's just the feel of quality
engineering at work. The Yash is perfectly capable, though.

Steve, You are correct in your analysis on the gears .. and I understand
that they are more flimsy than the Rollei gears but I never had a Yash that
wore out but I had a Rolleiflex F with a gear failure but I suspect that it
was from heavy use by the prior owner.
