Pentacon Six
Shoots a 6x6 image on 120 film.
I'm really confused here. Cosmetically, it certainly looks like a Pentacon Six, but, if you look closely, aren't all of the features reversed? For instance, the shutter release and film winder are on the left side in this photograph, but are ordinarily on the right side of a Pentacon Six, as far as I'm aware.
I was wondering about that too
There are a whole host of Pentacon Six derivatives, this may well be one of them
Anyone got/use one of these?
Or maybe they produced a left-handed model?
Or flipped it horizontally in PS?
Or flipped it horizontally in PS?
I considered that, but the text is the right way around. Would someone have bothered to flip the camera and then take the time to flip back the text and markings?
Anyone got/use one of these?
I have long since given up with digital cameras, other than using my phone for holiday photos.... however something like this is very tempting
waist level view and film been ages since I used film
The Mamiya RZs are quite big, arent they?
The TLR style looks cool as well
I haven't used this particular camera, but many cameras like this, yes.
What do you find tempting about it? The large waist level finder? If so, there are many medium format film SLRs with this feature in addition to the Pentacon Six, such as Bronicas (e.g., ETR series, SQ series, and GS-1 series cameras), Hasselblads (e.g., V-series models), Pentaxes (e.g., 645 and 6x7 cameras), and Mamiyas (e.g., RB67 and RZ67) to name only a few.
Possibly even cooler are the medium format TLRs, which also usually feature waist level finders, such as Rolleiflexes, Minolta Autocords, Yashica Mats, and Mamiya TLR cameras. Some of these can be picked up for very little outlay (~£100 or so).
