Well, it's all I hoped it would be. The only real minus in design is lack of grip, some sort of grip thingy would have been really great. I've started uploading pics to my flickr (link in sig line)

Congratulations for the GL690 and my sincere condolences on your financial sanity :grin:. You get really nice colors with your Reala film. Do you have it processed at a professional lab?

Cheers!

Yes, I always leave my films to a pro lab, one day I will have to learn how to do film processing myself, at least b&w

If processing films at your pro lab doesn't cost you an arm and a leg, stick to it for color because good labs are becoming scarce nowadays. On the other hand, it is true that black and white processing is easy to do at home. You don't even need a darkroom, only access to running water.

Cheers!
