Meet the Mamiya 6X6


I am starting my camera introductions with the Rangefinders:

Meet the Mamiya 6X6 medium format Rangefinder. This is my current favorite for day hikes. I have 50mm and 150mm lenses and a sturdy monopod to round out my equipment for hiking.





To the left is a photograph made with the Mamiya 6 at The Colorado State Forest showing the devastating affects of the Pine Beetle.

Yes the image has been cropped. Taken with Kodak GX Film, which is my favorite color transparency film. When they stop making it, I'll stop shooting color. I'm just not happy with the color balance of the Fuji transparency films.
