Pretty ugly piece of kit, but it's cool that someone with a vested interest in Jeff is putting his money where his mouth is and helping keep new film cameras on the market.

I had two Wideluxes - F7 and F8.
Bought them because of The Dude. Absolutely frickin hated them! Just did not work for me so sold them off.
Worst ergos out of any camera I've ever used. Bizarre placing of the VF which was not remotely accurate. Seriously limited selection of shutter speeds. Always banded.
I preferred my other 'swingers' - the Horizon 202 and Lomo U500. But sold them off and kept easily the best of them all - the Noblex 135. Still use that camera.
It is cool though that it is being brought back. I'm sure they will sell at least 10 of them.

Pfft. Real men use the Fuji GX617 for selfies with Sam Elliot.
It is cool to see his passion project coming to life. I don't share his love for the camera, but maybe they're making some improvements. I think I'd still rather have a TX or X-Pan.
