I would really like to have a modern version of this camera.

Such a beautiful camera. Hopefully one day I'll have enough cash to pick one up.

I love my 1937 Zeiss Super Ikon Special (Zeiss f3.5 Tessar). Ps: it's smaller and lighter and has a bigger negative Plus an extremely sharp lens. The Fuji is probably OK also.

Well, there were a relatively few Super Ikonta models made in 6x9cm using 120 film, and even 6.5x11cm using 616 film, but they are all "heavy metal" and not lighter than a GF670. Also, the lens on the GF670 has the advantage of 50 additional years of computer design and one or two additional corrective elements (depending on which lens your Ikonta sports), so the Fuji will take a superior technical photo and leave change for your Ikonta. The vast majority of Super Ikonta models out there use the same 120 roll film, but shoot a smaller 645 or 6x6cm format with a Tessar lens.
