The Bronica ETRS (1979) is the second-generation 6×4.5 medium-format SLR in Bronica's ETR line. Modular: interchangeable lenses, backs, finders. **Electronic leaf shutters** in each lens, sync flash at all speeds. Compared to the later ETRSi (1989), the ETRS lacks TTL flash metering and multi-exposure mode. Otherwise mechanically equivalent.
