Here it is, my new friend.

I love it. David LaChapelle used it a lot in the beggining of his career.

Some pictures (some outside dust. I forgot to clean it)









And with it I got 17 films colour and b&w.

Oh, nice. I see Pentax had some sensible strap lugs on the 645, instead of the horrible things Mamiya used.

I have one still to use for the first time... and yes you can use P6 lenses on it.

I love the 3/4 proportions for portrait or still life, less so with street shots or landscape.

Anyway it's a great camera if you like fashion, even if it was more used its bigger brother (Pentax 67) that is still in the arsenal of many famous fashion shooters.

Any benefits to compare with Pentacon Six ?

More shots per 120 roll (20 compared to 12), better framing if you want to compose shots for a printed page, motor drive winding and built in exposimeter... plus Takumar lenses which are very good (and pretty cheap the not AF ones) too.

I have Mamiya RB67 and I like it very much. I'll sell it probabily because I won't use it very much. I prefer 6x4.5 format and I need money... :S

It's sad because I really like it...

I'm selling my bessa-l too...So this is hard to me.. :S

Look market place No-X selling a Flektogon 4/50 on low price that will be excellent choice for your camera.

I want to see some shots from your 67 Confused

You have some serious hardware.
Congrats!
