saw this ebay ad for a medium format kit
http://cgi.ebay.com.au/Mamiya-RB-67_W0Q ... dZViewItem
i was thinking of buying it as i would like to do some medium format stuff
any drawbacks on this kit? 65mm is a wide angle on on 6x7 right?

I'd like to know the condition of it.
The RB67's tend to break a lot, especially if mistreated.
I know from experience of using in the studio that, while I love the camera, people often end up screwing both the body up and the Polaroid back.

interesting, not sure if the probody version had better advantage over lenses selection?
i'am guess iam worried about this guys trends, high tickets items for sale with little descriptions with no pics.
