robert loop Posted August 13, 2007 Share Posted August 13, 2007 Hello. I have this Bronica SQ AM. This camera has two "bad" points: heavy and noisy. How would the Rollei compare ? Would it be a more discrete camera ? Thanks for opinions. Robert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john_banister1 Posted August 13, 2007 Share Posted August 13, 2007 A Rollei TLR would be quieter and lighter. The 6000 series (and hence, I presume SLX) mirror and film winding seems pretty noisy to me, though I've never heard the Bronica for comparison. With the lens, battery and film back removed, a 6000 series body feels light, but it isn't very useful in that state. The Hy6 tries to reduce some of these problems, having a li-ion battery, using Rollei linear motors to accelerate & decelerate the mirror and removing the film winding motor from the camera body, but it's significantly more expensive than an SLX.
