Yes I purchased this lot 25 years ago but never really used it.
If you want to trow them away - please do it in my direction via RM !

Well, I thought I'd add my 2p... The RB67 is a stunning camera and built like a tank. I now reach for this before my Digital when opening my camera bag on location. 67 format for me is an absolute winner, like mohain said; crop-able to most of the popular ratios.
Oh, and 67 format gives 10 frames to a roll, not 8 as someone said earlier.
Feel free to PM if you have any specific questions chap
EDIT: with regards to your filters question... Grads on B&W can have adverse effects on the image. I personally suggest learning the zone system for exposing when shooting in mono. Colour filters can be useful, though I would suggest researching the frequency response curves for the film you are using and then using the appropriate coloured filter. Personally, I never use CPL's on film, as I tend to shoot slide file such as velvia which needs no saturation boost! Grads on slide is practically a necessity.
Just been reading up on the zoning but am now confused... Do you need to do the zoning when processing/developing the film or just when shooting? And I take it with film it's best to overexpose slightly and bring it back in developing/processing than to underexpose? Or is that for slide and film is the other way round?
i know peeps that went straight to 5x4 after 35mm though....

As for classcams cameras... It's my thread so I should get first dibs!
shoot some 35mm instead then, its cheaper, work your way up to m/f

If they did square digital (without cropping) then I may be tempted to try that as well.
