In terms of making a serious camera, a tilt adapter for a removable viewfinder, like the GFX 100, would be a far more fruitful avenue IMO.

Those this looks more like they're trying to get into the whole retro/poseur/Instax sort of market, which, as much as I cringe at it personally, is probably not a bad idea.

I still have my old Rollei 2.8 F (planar)
This new concept reminds me of the Rollei

It�s a big Yes from me
Let�s hope it makes production

My first camera as a kid was a Rollei with a waist-level-viewfinder. I loved it! The old flash bulbs - not so much

Never used it with flash bulbs - but did use it in the college studio with huge Bowen / elinchrom
Studio lights
Amazing camera 🥰

How many would buy this for what it would cost? It's not going to be cheap.
My first flash camera was like this but in much nicer condition. https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/f/fa/Brownie_Hawkeye_with_Flash.jpg

I have that same camera, without the flash, in my collection. Bought it at an antique store for $10.

Too bad it's just a concept. Looks like something I'd buy instantly if it has a good lens and a large enough sensor. Sick and tired of video optimized cameras with tiny buttons and a zillion "functions" that I don't want or need.

Maybe will have to dig out the 'Blad and take it for a spin...
