Medium Format Film Cameras

On shootingfilm.net a post by Hkanh Hmoong features a series of famous medium format film cameras.

Only to mention two of the cameras presented on this blog there is the Rolleiflex 2.8F twin lens camera. It is a TLR (twin lens reflex system). A classic for portrait and action photography. The camera has been built in Germany right after world war II in 1949.

The second one to mention is the Mamiya RZ67. This is a medium format single lens reflex camera. The first model has been released in 1982 but the camera was built until later than 2004.

One recent camerastrap manufacturer is PeakDesign.
Some of my photography friends are keen users of PeakDesign Slide Camera Sling. And I got one recently too. There is really a difference in carrying and using your camera with this kind of strap. I could only recommend it.
