Aaron, Of course I got one. In a previous post I mentioned the new P67II, AE II Finder, 90 2.8 and hotshoe grip. Boy am I excited! Thanks for the tips on the film.
Are there any differences between 120 & 220 other than # of frames. Such as wear & tear, light leakage, etc. I thought I would stick with 120 unless I have a definate need for more frames on the roll. I'm not changing my vote until you say congrats though.
