Generally Bay II accessories are harder to find than Bay III or Bay I . I own only an MX-EVS with a 75 3.5 Tessar and have been very happy with it. I like that it is lighter in weight. I have been considering getting a 2.8 at some time, but having to buy new accessories is one stopping point. I have a pretty complete set in Bay I that came with the camera (Hood, cap, Rolleinars, 9 filters, neck strap) Plus everything came in its original box with case. I figure it would cost me several hundred dollars to buy it all separately. In general, I think people dwell too much on the camera and not enough of simply learning to make good photographs with it. I have never thought that the differences between Tessar and Xenar, and Xenotar and Planar lenses to be terribly large, especially when exposures are made at f 4/5.6 and smaller apertures.
