At the very least, it should be one or the other. Not both! It is a performer however.

That's a pretty good bargain....!
Here's another with the Bessa L + 25/4 Snapshot Skopar + P3200
Nice shot! I sold my 25/4 Snapshot Skopar a while back, but still have the body - don't quite know what to do with it. I think mine is either a very early version, or an export market version. It's badged 107-SW instead of Bessa L.
First time trying Fujifilm Neopan 100 Acros II. I bought a bunch when they were blowing out short-dated stock at Adorama at the end of 2021. Found it interesting that the film base (in the rebate area) is completely clear.

I think it's a market thing... Cosina 107-SW. Pretty neat!
Too bad the Snapshot Skopar is gone, it's a great match to the L. I sold the whole works myself, I enjoyed using it, but it rarely made it into the bag over my M's. I plan to get a WA M mount lens sometime soon instead.

I sold my Bessa L because it just felt so fragile. The film advance train on my first one broke immediately (from new!), the replacement was fine but I advanced the film very gingerly. Even though I babied it the rubber bodywork wore very quickly.
I prefer using my MD-A and this little nugget which is loaded with C200, AS WE SPEAK!

Yeah, must be a market thing, I bought mine on eBay from a seller in Mexico. Other 107-SW models I've seen online also have COSINA in big letters on the front, but mine lacks brand markings on both the front and top plates...

I hit up that awesome sale too. I thought I got a lot, but still feel that it wasn't enough. Lovely shot.
Thank you @Keahi08! I bought a modest amount, but the sale lasted much longer than I expected. I ended up ordering a second batch, but in hindsight I should have ordered way more. Deals like that on film are hard to come by these days.
p.s. Looks like we're both in the South Bay area, maybe I'll see you out there one of these days!

I thought that you were in the North Bay for some reason. I spend a lot of time in the Quicksilver, Calero, Rancho Canada areas. I also like to go to Woodside, Pescadero, Castle Rock areas when I have a lil more time.
