So, new medium format film photography coming soon. I realise I am losing up to half of the potential detail captured by the RZ but I don’t think anyone will tell the difference in the final image as I do not blow up my prints to make use of all those pixels. This will make using the RZ more economical too with the ever rising film costs. Using a cropped 6×4.5 film back on a Mamiya RZ67 means I get 16 photos rather than 10 from each roll of 120 medum format film. The Contax 645 let me see that the 645 format is a huge jump with almost 4x the negative ‘sensor’ size. FOR SALE Contax 645 medium format with 140mm 2.8 lens. CONTAX 645 MEDIUM Format w/ 140mm Zeiss f2.8 lens and extras - 2,500.00. Everything works perfectly (shot a few rolls through it already) and no issues have come up in film process/dev. Extras include a Contax lens pouch and a Carl Zeiss T filter for the 80mm and a roll of either Portra 400 or Tri-X in the back. 35mm film can be too low resolution (more me) on occasion. Contax 645 medium format with 140mm 2.8 lens. For sale is a Contax 645 kit (grip, back and prism) along with 80mm f2 and a 45mm f2.8 for sale. I believe there is a big jump from 35mm to 6×4.5 medium format in terms of detail captured in the negative. I bought 645 film backs so I can use the Mamiya for wedding portraits and studio portraits where I want to shoot more than 10 photos and yet I do not need the additional detail captured by 6×7 negatives. Some Mamiya RZ67 6×6 back portraits – I found the 6×6 film back has become my go to back on the RZ Mamiya RZ 645 Film Back Yes I could crop a 6×7 photo but by having a dedicated 6×6 film back I get 2 more shots on a roll (12 rather than 10) and I get 6×6 straight out of camera which I prefer. I bought a 6×6 film back as I prefer the square format. The sharpest Mamiya RZ lenses that I own are the 65mm f4 and 110mm f2.8 Mamiya Sekor lenses. This allows me to ‘dim’ daylight more if needed. 1/200 for for Nikon D800 and 1/30 for my ARAX (Kiev 88).

Mamiya RB67 Professional S Medium Format Camera with 90mm f/3.8 Lens. I can sync my flash at 1/400 on the RZ vs. Minolta Hi-matic G Rangefinder 35mm Film Camera. I love the RZ large bright viewfinder and the sharp Mamiya Sekor leaf shutter lenses. I bought 2x Mamiya 645 film back and 1 Mamiya 6×6 film back.

So, I just treated my Mamiya RZ67 Pro II medium format film camera to some new film backs. I want to reduce the number of film cameras I own however I enjoy the different film formats – 6×9, 6×7, 6×6, 6×4.5, 35mm.
I am starting to miss my film photography that has been neglected since I got my Leica M9. Mamiya RZ 645 Film Back, a photo by MatthewOsbornePhotography_ on Flickr.
