After using the Lubitel for a while, I started to like the affordability of the TLR, so I decided that it's worth upgrading the Lubitel to something a bit better, well a lots better, by getting the Yashica Mat 124.
The Yashica is basically a clone of the well known Rolleiflex TLR, it's much more solidity made, conventional, easy to handle and despite being heavier and bigger, a crisper viewfinder that make focusing easier.
I should be able to use it a lots more now, I love the medium format photography more than the 35mm counterpart, I'd rather have a medium format SLR, but for now, I'll stick with the TLR for a while, take advantage of what I have.

Hi Scobleism, some nice shots on the blog and on Flickr. i'm just starting out with Film after a using a DSLR and really enjoying the images from a Holga. Would like to try A TLR.
My attempts with Medium format have not been very successful
Had a Bronica ETRSi with a 70mm lens but this is way too big for me and I'm just lazy with the Holga
If it aint sunny I'm not taking it out
A TLR seems like a very good option
