Mamiya 6 Rangefinder | Film Camera Review

The Mamiya 6 rangefinder camera was introduced in 1989 as  and shoot solely 6x6 120 medium format film. It interchanges between 3 lenses, 50mm, 75mm and 150mm. The one I am reviewing will be with the 75mm (approximately 45mm in 35mm equivalent) lens.

 

Fuji GW690III Review

Fuji GW690III Review

The Fuji GW690III is a 90’s-era 6X9 medium format rangefinder with a fixed 90mm f/3.5 lens.  The angle of view is slightly wider than ‘normal’.  The camera is fully mechanical.  It gets 8 exposures from a 120 roll or 16 on 220 if you are lucky enough to have some.  This camera also came in 6X7 and 6X8 variants and a wider angle of view variant as well. The Fuji GW690II is simple.  Focus, aperture, and shutter are the only controls.

Leica M6 or Voigltander Bessa R4M | Film Camera Review

When I first started on my rangefinder experience, I was overwhelmed by the choices before me; Voigtlander Bessa, Zeiss Ikon, Canon, Nikon, Contax, Yashica, Leica and many more. After some consideration and many hours of looking through them, I decided I was going for Voigtlander Bessa system as I wanted an interchangeable lens system so that I can switch around to determine my favorite frameline.
