I haven't shot medium format since I was in college about 4 or 5 years ago. I remember very much enjoying the processing and the results but struggling with the 120 film itself, loading etc. 35mm was something I was far more used to. Because of that minor struggle, I shelved medium format when I left college. I've wanted to get back into it but that minor struggle, having to send (colour) film away to be processed etc kept me from diving back in.
Well, now I want to.
So I've spent a few days looking about and googling and narrowed it down to Mamiya 645 or Bronica ETRS as what fits my budget. I have experience with both of those brands although I can't remember the exact model. But I'm familiar with those brands so I'm keen to spend the money and stick with them.
I don't really want rf or tlr, I just never enjoyed using either.
I'm looking for advice on the best one for me. Handheld portraits are what I shoot predominately. If asking questions will make it easier to help out, fire away
Budget of around £200 for a setup plus a roll or 2 of film. May be able to stretch to £220/230 for the right one..
