Hello David and a warm welcome to APUG! I also use Canon FD system. I have a TLR but it is a Rolleiflex 2.8.

Jeff,

You've got the real thing! :-) Actually, I like the Yashica for what little 120 I am doing - it was a minimal investment and the camera was extremely well cared for by the previous owner.

On the FD gear, I have been shooting those sort of cameras since 1976 when the police department I worked for bought some AE-1s for crime scene work - that officially got me into the 135 format. Later I bought my own AE-1 Program, (still one of my all time favorite cameras - I own 4 of them today).

Hi, David! Welcome! I'm new here, too, but certainly not new to film. I shot FD mount Canons for a while; the first SLR camera I bought myself was a Canon AE-1, and I had the opportunity to use an FTb for a time, which I quite enjoyed. Man, that thing was a tank!

Glad you're enjoying your Yashica 124. I really like TLR cameras, though my wife hates them.

See you around!

Again, thanks to all. I have been poking around the forums a bit more and finding some interesting threads.
