Thank you Nesster! I like your work with the vintage cameras as well.

I love these old folders. The quality you can get from these vintage cameras is amazing if you know more or less what you are doing and the Zeiss Ikons seem to be especially well built. I also have a 6x9 Balda Pontina on the way, can't wait to try that as well.

And you can get these cameras for crazy prices. I haven't paid more than 20 euro's for any of them (including shipping!).

I would love to get my hands on a Zeiss Ikon Ikonta with a Tessar and rangefinder but they are a bit harder to find and more expensive.

I am also looking at getting an affordable MF slr (for street and landscapes mostly). Any advice?
