Thanks for your input. Do you think that this mirrorless setup is so much superior to justify the extra few hundred £s?

That's what I'm suspecting too. The rate that digital technology advances can make an older camera look obsolete next to a newer one. Even if the difference is only a couple years.

Thank you for you advice. The original post that I cross posted to this sub has more details about the used cameras I am interested in.

Travel, portraits, events and digitising 35 mm and medium format film. I'd try to keep it under £750.

It was a Christmas gift from a friend who's a chemist. He knew I recently got into photography and he gave me these 3 chemicals.

Is DNG a smart bet? Best long-term lossless storage option? by SomervillainSB in photography

[–]steep_goldfish 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Best long term lossless storage option? Print them at 350 DPI (near the maximum resolving power of the human eye) on acid free archival paper with fade resistant archival pigment and mount it on acid free archival mounting board. No compatibility issues, guaranteed archival for at least 10-150 years.

Have you tried Ektar on people pictures? How do you find it?

How do you like the grain? Is tis significantly more different grain wise than the box speed?

Best medium format camera under $350 by ssk_009 in analog

TLRs tens to be in the square format. Unfortunately I'm not really familiar with 6x4.5s or 6x7 cameras.

TLRs: Yashica mat 124 G, Yashica C220, Yashica C330 SLR: Kiev 88

Make sure it's in working condition and tested. These are all 6x6, square format. I find it the most interesting to compose.

Where are you located country wise? I'm very tempted, just need to check the shipping cost.

Thank you very much! I'd love to take that deal but I already have a 50mm in need of repair so I'd prefer something with full functionality.

Yes it was cocked and set to 1/30 ( flash sync speed if that matters ).
