The 124G is an excellent camera, includes a meter, and easily obtainable for an
affordable price. I just sold my mint condition Rolleiflex TLR for $200, as I
only had it for a short time,  was unable to see sharper photos from the Rollei,
and its at least double the price (some models way up to $1000). Yashica did a
very good job of mimicking the Rolleiflex, and keeping high quality. I used it
in a pinch once when shooting a poster for Smirnoff Vodka. The Mamiya RZ-67 I
rented quit on me, and the Yashica was the only 120 camera I had around. I
dreaded a reshoot, but the photos, (and poster) were tack sharp. No need to pay
extra for the Rollei.
