that was one of the reasons I abandoned my P67 and medium format. I liked doing color and both of my local labs that did it closed. I was forced into mail order processing which sucks. I now use 35mm for color and large format for BW.... I did keep one medium format camera just in case, a mint zeiss super ikonta III rangefinder, but its only got the one 75mm lens....I am going to try E6 processing at home, but it seems like its going to be a real pain in the ass without a processor...

Voigtlander Bessa R and R2 are mechanical. It does not bother me if they quit making mechanical cameras as there are enough good used ones around to fill my needs. If they stop making film though I will be up the creek. Like I mentioned a while back you can no longer get 120 film in this town, nor can you get it processed locally. It is an hour drive to a small city from here, and 2 hours to any reasonably big city. Of course the post office is just around the corner, but if you use as little film as I currently do the shipping eats you alive. Living in the boonies you get a preview of coming attractions. -- Shel Belinkoff wrote: > > I thought the FM3A was discontinued.
