What medium format film cameras still manufactured?

[kansalliskala]

I was browsing Tamron site and was surprised because Bronica brand was discontinued so late as 2005. So I started looking at which cameras were still produced and when discontinued. List is based on google "information", so can someone add /edit items if really knows better?

Still in production:
Mamiya: RB 67, RZ 67, 645, 7
Hasselblad: 503
Kiev: 60, 88

Discontinued after 2000:
Bronica 2005
Rollei 2009
Contax 2005

No reliable info yet:
Pentax 645 (digital 2010?)
Fuji GA645 (in production or not?)

Mamiya still makes the RZ67 Pro IID and 645AFD III. The 7 II has been gone for quite some time. They still have accessories and lenses available for the 645 Pro/TL and RB67-SD, as they were discontinued only two or three years ago.

The older Fujis (GA series, GX, GW/GSW) are long out of production, but there still are some GF670 (Fuji version of the Bessa III) in the shops, and given its success, they might do another production run or create a follow-up. Besides that, Fuji is the maker behind the Hasselblad H system cameras and lenses, which are marketed as Fujifilm GX645AF in Japan, and still have a film back available (and Fuji marketing does not center on their digital backs nearly as much as Hasselblad).

Tamron stopped Zenza Bronica SLR production five years ago, and the RF645 a year later.

Contax pulled out of MF with the closure of the entire Yashica/Kyocera photography brand. Kyocera do sell good kitchen knives, though...

Pentax quit film and MF - but they have announced a new digital MF camera for next year. As the Pentax 645 always had a integrated magazine, it will hardly grow a film brother, as that would mean a body redesign rather than a mag swap.

Rollei/F&H went belly-up once more this year, this time for good - and the film aspects of the Hy6 had already been downplayed to the point that it was essentially only available as digital. And what with the TLR production already using up spare parts for the past years to the depletion point, it does not even look as if there might be a Rolleiflex TLR revival at artisan scale.

Hasselblad still makes the 503CW, and the H2 (see Fuji) can be purchased as H2F with film magazine.

Hartblei still seem to be patching up Kievs - but the latter are probably NOS or spare assembled by now, there is no indication that they are still made from scratch.

Too much "consumer product" for Jenoptik.

How about the Chinese Seagull TLR?

B&H lists the following makes on their MF film section:
Hasselblad, Holga, Lomography, Mamiya, Rollei, Seagull

How many of these are dregs of old stock?

Also didn't find definitive information about Bessa III. It is still available on some sites for 1999 euros but Cosina-pages don't list is anywhere: products or discontinued?

Yeah, leave us not forget the ultra-chic Holga. All by itself it's probably responsible for much of the revival of interest in MF film use.

Thank goodness for the Holga, it helps keep 120 film in production.

Pentax Canada still lists the Pentax 645 camera on its web site.
It also lists the Pentax 67 lenses.
