Re: Krasnogorsk FT-2

[Richard_Campbell@xxxxxxxxxx]

Art,
I've played around with an FT-2 for a couple of years.  The format is a lot of
fun -- but the camera is much less convenient than my Widelux.  (You need to
spool your film into special cassettes in a darkroom or a changing bag.)

I have an older version -- the model that people will tell you should be
avoided.  I haven't had any problems with the shutter speed, so I don't
completely undersand what the problem is all about.

You can see an image from my camera at:

Does anyone have any feedback on the Krasnogorsk FT-2 ?

I am considering buying one . . . its 50mm lens seem appealing . . .
comments?
