I want a Mamiya.

I have a feeling I am going to be referred to another site for this question, but what are the differences between a Mamiya and a Hasselblad? Christmas is coming...

dont start that discussion

well in my opinion... both have their advantages.. i prefer a mamiya and thats a personal thing...some say a hasselblad's are great but that its all the name. hasselblads are way expensive and you can get great if not better with a mamiya. If you are going to get a mamiya get a RZ... not an RB.

they are all capable..i would never shoot with a mamiya due to the low sync speeds. nor would i buy hasselblad because of how expensive the lenses are. so bronica works perfect, its cheap, syncs faster then any dslr body on the market (aside from the og canon 1d). and due to its cheapness i can afford more glass...which is the best part!
- yes of course, hasselblads are just way out of my price range.Calero

- by the way...i am try to put that pinhole camera together this weekend. :) thanks!Calero

- ...snags.allysin
- btw, you have a scanner to measure the pinhole? if not I can send you some approximate exposure times.allysin

like calero said..buy used.
check out WWW.KEH.COM — amazing source, you can return also, really top notch place. and also like calero said, get a light meter, for instance im using a sekonic L-358, you may not need one with the capabilities of the L-358 however. lightmeter is the most important tool in your bag.

I use a pentax V modified by Zone V... old but awesome light meter.
