Anybody wanting to get into medium format cheaply should look hard at this brand.They had many accessories and the cameras were dependable and the optics were(are)good.Prices for cameras and accessories are dirt cheap in most cases.

I guess I wasn't clear, I don't know what camera you are talking about.

Look for the 645 ETRSi,the SQ series if you like 6x6,or the GS-1 if you like 6x7.Bronica.

I recently bought an ETRS and an ETRSi at the auction site along with a 40, 75 and 150mm lenses. Great cameras, and from what I've seen so far, the lenses are tack sharp.

You can get an basic ETRS with a 75mm lenses, AEII finder and 120 back for a good price. There are plenty of accessories available, too, although some of the rarer ones (35mm wide backs, extension tubes, bellows, etc.) can be a bit pricey.

I'm still getting used to using the ETRS (I think I've been spoiled by auto focus) but I really like it so far.
