Me too.  I loved the Fuji but the pinhole in the bellows problem was pervasive and a major grievance.  I would think that I had the problem solved and then all the negs would be light struck again.  Too bad as it was beautiful camera.

Now isn't that just one lovely piece of camera?
    

I had a Fuji GS645 for years, but it always disappointed me. This
particular one got pinholes in the bellows corner, so every time I fixed
something and started using it again, the first or second roll showed a
new problem.  So I lost a lot of interesting photos to that camera over
the  years.  I really liked the idea of a small portable medium format,
but it just didn't work out for me.

(The lens markings and controls, shape of the thumb notch for focusing and
such on the Bessa 667 look exactly as I remember the Fuji lens to have
looked.  It's a different focal length, though.)
