My first medium format camera was a Yashicamat 124G TLR... I couldn't afford a medium format SLR or even a Mamiya at the time (I was 15)....not to mention a Rollei. It was a great camera...I still have it down in my studio in a display of old equipment.

I never had a way of projecting 2 1/4" transparencies though.... those and my 4x5s just got to look nice on a lightbox!
