Redpill me on Bronicas, guys. I've been getting back into medium format lately, shooting with a Koni Rapid Omega I've had for years. It works pretty well, but it's huge and unwieldly, and it's starting to show light leaks under certain conditions. I'm looking for a replacement around $500, and I've seen a fair few Bronica S, S2, C, ETRS, etc. on Ebay in that range. Who here uses one? What models and lenses are the best, what's the form factor like, and what condition issues should I watch out for? What other MF SLR's could I get in the same price range? I'd love to see some sample shots, too.
And so this isn't just me gearfagging, here's some recent shots with the Koni that I like.
