Can anyone compare the features of the Bronica ETR, ETRS, ETRSi as well as their experiences with anyone of these?

Dear Mary:

 

In regards to your question about the Bronica ETR system.

The ETR is the earliest 6 X 4.5 model, then came the ETRS and finally the ETRSi. They are all the same camera with minor upgrades as the years wore on.

All Zenza Bronica lenses are leaf shutter so you get TTL flash at every shutter speed. The downside is that the lenses cost much more than that of Mamiya. The real disadvantage for the Bronica is that there is a lack of a key ISO setting for your film speed.
