I shoot micro 4/3, APS-C, full-frame, 6x6cm, 6x7cm, 6x9cm, and 4x5 inch cameras. All are capable of producing great images. My personal favorite for half-length and head & shoulder portraits is the RB67 with 180mm lens.
Isn't taking a picture, "scanning", defeats the purpose of going to medium format? I would think lot of details are being lost with a smaller sensor of that camera.. instead of an actual scanner..
A 6x7 colour negative on ISO 200 film has resolution equivalent to approximately 18 megapixels. Faster film types will have less. Therefore a 24-ish megapixel digital camera with a sharp macro lens is ideal for scanning. The results I get from 6x9 negatives from a Fujica GL690, where the film resolution is equivalent to around 22 megapixels, appear to loose no sharpness when scanned this way. Many commentators who have compared both methods seem to come out in favour of using a camera to scan, rather than a flat-bed, for best image quality. However, it is always vital to ensure the flatness of the negative, its perpendicularity to the camera's axis and to accurately focus the macro lens on the film grain at around f8 and to check for sharpness over the whole area in magnified live-view before doing the scan.
Ahhh yeah these are beautiful! :))
And wow, I only noticed now while watching you hold that camera in front of the lens how huuuge that thing is haha
ahahah Thank you Teo ❤
I'm still waiting for you to try out medium format for yourself!

I love your editing style and would love a video on how u approach editing your videos
Thank you!
perhaps in the future :o
Love it man! Scanning setup is looking great too. I'll be trying the little baby out first haha 645 soon 👀
Oh no way!
If you're back in Sydney let's shoot something together!
I love the sound of Mamiya RB67. I love the beautiful rendering from Mamiya lenses. Too bad its very heavy
you are the GOAT bro
Compared to most large format cameras, the Mamiya RB67 is very light in weight.
6x7 was actually referred to by film photographers as "the ideal format". much for the same reasons you gave (barring the references to IG lol).
bought my first rb67
so exciting!
“Really large bits of film” gonna use this line in future 😂
Hahaha It is 🤷🏼♂
Where did you get the bag from?
love these videos good job !
Thanks 😊
awesome one tats! i hope to try 67 one day!!
You’ll fall in love Jaycie ✨
nice, keep it up!
🎉🎉🎉
Nice
