My first, now gone, TLR. The one that sold me on the concept:

Great little box, and a great starter for people who wanna get into MF for the price of a few beers... Have fun. Skj.

Nice box... looks like a well built Lubi

I must say I'm lucky, my first TLR was a YashicaMat... though I haven't used it much because my lab had to be transformed into a big storage room soon after I bought it... and it hasn't changed since  :'(

Here's one of the last pictures it ever took before sitting on my bookcase (I still wind it from time to time in order to make sure it still works fine)

Nice Mark! I actually have a Super Ricohflex. Still need to run a roll of film thru it. Too many cameras and not enough time :(

Same problem here... too many cameras, too little time and spare change.
I don't know if we're all the same when it comes to being suckers for cheap (and not so cheap) photo gear...
