forgot how much I love these cameras. Feels so good

I shot medium format SLRs for a very long time before somebody gave me their Rolleicord, and I really like it as well.
Especially the fact it's lighter, and quiter. Also people love it ("wow, how old is that?" etc.)
: ]
They are slower though, the matte screen is dim and prone to glare (and upgrading that costs as much as the whole camera basically) so I do need more time to focus, and the handling is a bit fiddly still, maybe it's me though, being used to Mamiya SLR so much..

get anything, you'll probably dump it for something else in time.

I'd rather do a bit more figuring out what suits my needs and budget before going for one medium format system or the other.
I know some people do buy and sell and switch camera systems a lot, but I haven't seen it getting them anywhere, besides it wastes a lot of time and often money as well.
Just check the options and figure out what you wanna do, it's a bit like buying a bike.

The original ground glass was dim and difficult to focus on mine, so a decade and a half ago it got a new screen. It was someone on a camera forum who used to cut down (Mamiya?) fresnel focus screens to fit. I did that and it helped, especially having a split in the middle. Much much brighter, though the fresnel increased glare, so I got used to using the magnifier. Not ideal by any means, but serviceable.

The 6x6 SQ-b is a pretty nice camera with not much to go wrong. Bronica cameras with electronics had a bad rep back in the day.

Daily reminder though ... Rolleicord/Yashica etc TLRs are way more fun and usable than they appear. Other than hipster-bookend value they aren’t too hyped, so can be picked up cheap.

Any interest in an immaculate Sony Rx100 IV with official Sony Case, Box, Charger, Battery and SD card?

I could be interested! Feel free to send me a PM with some details if you'd like

I'll drop you some pics and details

For the benefit of anyone else here are the pics I sent @ACRe19.

Having looked at prices on eBay, good condition Mark IV seem to go for about £400. Given this comes with the Sony case which costs about £60 I reckon £375 is a pretty good deal. That's cheaper than I can see anywhere and less than I'd get for it on ebay etc.

It's absolutely immaculate not a mark on it, everything works etc. Great little camera with the great bonus of fitting in a Jersey pocket.

I’d say you’re pretty close, if someone really wanted a whole kit. Not sure anyone would buy all in at once though. Shame I can’t help you out at the moment - a couple of those lenses were on my wish list.

Thanks. I guess I'll have to work out how to split it.

Selling some lights and a mic btw -

Going towards the Q2 fund...

Similarly, I may be interested in some bits if you split.

I'll split. Which bits are you interested in?

Possibly the 55-210 lens. Although I'm not 100% I actually need it.

Cheapest I can see on evilBay is £135+ postage. How does £100 collected in SW London sound?

Cheers, I'll have to have a think about it (the whole point of me getting the Sony was as a compact alternative to my DSLR ...).

I’m away until 27th, but I was keen on the Sony 20/2.8 depending on price, if you fancy sending me a pm.

Colour me very interested in the 55-210 lense if aggi pull out. Also the waterproof case, depending on price?

It's a Neewer case and I paid for it just over £100. Since I never used it £70 seems like a fair price.

Although tempted if you want it I'm happy to pass (and save some money).

Worked out how to split it. I'm open to offers, all prices are negotiable. Viewing and testing is more than welcome. I'm based in Tooting.
