Hi all

I just treated myself to a 6x7 11 Pentax with 105mm and 45mm lenses , it has a meter finder as well , picked it up on Ebay for a song from a young lad with a big overdfart problem .

Must say I am well pleased , I used Bronica SQAM in the past with good results , cant wait to get out and use it

any other 6x7 users on here ?

Very nice indeed to have a 67!

I have a 645n which I use for studio portraiture and landscape work, but the 67 offers an even bigger negative.

One thing both cameras offer is a superb range of lenses. Your choice seems an excellent one - I hope you enjoy your purchase!
Best regards, John

I just got one this month on ebay to from a guy in sweden arrived here in the UK in 3 days.
Took it to China for 2 weeks and loved it the results are amazing with provia and velvia, was a little under on average exposure so might make it half a stop over next time.
Found the best way to use it was to aim, then flick the mirror up which is right nest to the shutter release, then fire, found i was able to hold it very steady that way. check out some of the results on www.collarge.com and then goto china.
My back did ache after 2 weeks lugging this around but i did have the canon as a backup as well, next time i would be happy with just the Pentax in my bag.
