It ticks all the boxes you want in a professional camera, the lens is probably the sharpest lens I have ever used (and let me tell you, I have plenty of sharp lenses), the shutter is silent and accurate, the camera is easy to use. This camera is all, and more, I was hoping for. Let me tell you, I haven’t regretted it for a minute since. They are pretty modern, people know how to repair them, they are quite sturdy and don’t have lots of weird electrical issues etc.Īfter a couple of months of searching I found one here in Sweden for a good price, so I jumped on the chance. But then I decided on going the Mamiya 6 route instead. now we are talking, maybe this is what I am looking for. but it is also an expensive and rare camera. I also looked at maybe going 645? The Bronica RF645 looks really nice. Second, they have gotten insanely expensive. First off, my enlarger in the darkroom only does up to 6圆, so I wouldn’t currently be able to print the negatives from that camera. At first was looking for a Mamiya 7, but realized two things. It is so heavy, and it takes up so much space in the bag that I just leave it at home.Īnd that has been, up until now, my only medium format camera (if you don’t count Holgas and Dianas, which I have plenty of). Maybe a rangefinder? I often wish that I would shoot more 120 film, but my Hasselblad 500C/M is a beast to carry around. If you read my previous blog post you know that I have been searching for something light weight, easy to bring along.
