Okay, I go through cameras like they are water, I really do. Nex 3, A66, EOS 3 - all in the past 6 months. I always tend to go back to my pair of 50D's for shooting professionally. I had so much fun shooting with an EOS3, that I am putting in a dark room in the basement. But beyond that, if you are going to shoot film, I figured, medium format was the way to go.

I know some of you hate film. I really like it though. So I picked up a pair of RB67 Pro-S 6x7 Medium format cameras and a Mamiya 645AF 6x4.5. I will likely sell my 35mm bodies when I use up my stash of film.

Loving the new format!!! Just got my RB67 and shot a few shots today. Can't wait!!!

This is of course, for my pleasure. I doubt I'll shoot film professionally unless it's for my personal enjoyment.

Good for you- medium format film is so nice. I skip the darkroom though- just develop my own negatives and scan from there.

I shoot a Yashica 124G. Searching for a bargain on a Fuji GS645W.

I love medium format film. Pentax 645, baby! I also have a Brownie, Holga and a 120mm pinhole and a couple of other old ones. I process the film then scan the negatives for the most part, unless I want to make some big prints.
