The Tank.....

As mention by John, currently the FOS team has got bitten by the film bug. I must admit that I was the worst of the 2 that was bitten badly. Every since the film frenzy I have been searching for films, where to get, process and scan them out. What I felt was that it was back to basics in film photography. It makes me think of how and what I wanted to shoot.

Then just last week I really wanted a Medium Format(MF) film camera. John asked "Why want venture into MF Camera?" Honestly I have been always fascinated with MF cameras example Hasselblad, Contax, Mamiya, Kiev and many more. So the search for a reasonable and pristine unit is in progress and to my luck I have found what I wanted. It was a Mamiya Rb67 proSD, the last upgraded model in it generation since 1970. This BEAST was the work horse of many professional fashion photographers including famous ones.

Here are some of the pictures of the camera.

Why I mention camera as a TANK or a BEAST is because this camera really is big and heavy and weights a ton (2.5kg to be exact hahaha )
