I absolutely love medium format. My only system is an RB67. I got it for an awesome price, so no complaints there. It is a little big and clunky. Not impossible to hand hold, but not the ideal camera to bring along on family outings.
This has gotten me wondering about MF rangefinders. I'm intrigued by the Mamiya 7, but just can't justify the cash outlay for that system. I'd also consider TLRs as well. I'm thinking a rangefinder may be better for casual walk around shooting, but there are also advantages to waist level finders when casually shooting.
Basically I'm looking for a MF camera to compliment my larger camera. Something that I can just grab and go. I'm ok with or without a built in meter. Using the RB67 that has no meter has taught me a lot about exposure. Also, the pocket meter app on the iPhone works really darn well in trickier situations.
I'd be interested to hear any suggestions you may have.
