I've got a Rollei SL66 body, regular waist-level finder along with the 45-degree prism finder; an 80mm lens plus the 150mm lens. A variable lens shade, two film backs, hand grip with cable release plus the large aluminum suitcase/carrying case.

Too avoid banding on a WideLux F7 or F8 that has not been used for a while, without film cock and fire 80 to 100 times. That smooths out the lubrication so you can avoid banding. Tempe Camera in Arizona does really good CLA work on WideLuxes.

I had a Widelux F7 and F8 and sold them but kept my Horizon 202.
The Widelux is cooler, but the 202 is a much better camera.

If I leave my Widelux F7 for a long time, I dry fire it for 100 to 150 times before loading film to smooth out the lubrication and get rid of banding.
