Just thought I’d update the group. I LOVE THIS CAMERA, thunder and all. Seems to have a touch of the hyperfocal distance problem that evidently is common for this camera, but I rarely shoot that way anyways, so we’ll just overlook that shall we?

I’m really enjoying my C2. Light seals replaced by me now no leaks—I had one tiny one. The shutter sound doesn’t bother me nor does the film advance to cock the shutter. The 75mm lens is way under the radar IMO, though. I’ll get another camera eventually.

That extra stop of shutter speed would be nice outdoors indeed.

"at which point it will scatter wildlife". This sums up my brief fling w/ a Bronica C. After that ear splitting experience it was back to the silent Rolleicords.

When I "fire" my S2a children scream, women swoon, and horses rear in panic. Truly an extrovert of a camera!
