Here are my MF cameras. Only the Bronica is a RF, the Fujica is scale focus.

A Bron RF, Manny, nice :)

Un-named (Ernemann) - 6x9 folder
Rolleicord III - 6x6 TLR
Zeiss Nettar 515 - 6x4.5 wondercame-...folder

Not shown is the Mamiya RB67 and Rolleiflex Automat. The RB is mum's and I'll be damned if I can work out how to use it, and the Rolleiflex is sold pending cash in hand.

Did someone mention MF cameras?

- 1 Fuji G690 BL + 1 GL690 with 5.6/50, 5.6/65, 3.5/100, 5.6/180 6x9 RF

- 1 Musashino-Rittreck Optika IIa with 3.5/105 Luminant, a nice 6x9/6x7/6x6/4.5x6 SLR from the 60s with a focal plane shutter; I use it a lot with an iris diaphragm lensholder to experiment with old barrel lenses

- 3 Zeiss Ikon Super-Ikonta 531/2 (1 with uncoated 3.5/105 Tessar, 1 with coated 3.5/105 Opton Tessar, 1 with 3.5/105 Novar Anastigmat) 6x9 RF

- 1 Moskva 5 with coated 3.5/105 Industar 6x9 RF

- 1 Ensign Selfix 8/20 with coated 3.8/105 Ross Xpress 6x9 guess focus

- 1 Demaria-Lapierre Telka III with 3.5/95 Sagittar 6x9 RF

- 1 Bessa E (Bessa RF) with uncoated 3.5/105 Heliar 6x9 RF

- 1 Welta Garant with uncoated 4.5/105 Meyer Trioplan 6x9 guess focus

- 1 Zeiss Ikon Ikonta 524/16 with coated 3.5/75 Tessar 6x6 RF

- 2 Mamiya 6 (1 with 3.5/75mm Zuiko, 1 with 3.5/75 Mamiya Sekor) 6x6 RF

- 1 Mamiya C330s with some lenses (65mm, 105mm & 180mm) 6x6 TLR

- 1 Konica Koniflex with a stellar 3.5/85 Hexanon (Heliar formula) 6x6 TLR

- 1 Voigtlander Brillant with 3.5/75 Heliar 6x6 TLR

- 1 Rapid Omega 200 with 3.5/90 Omegon 6x7 RF

Plus some other cameras (mostly 6x9 folders) that I don't remind of at the time, some LF gear (Speed Graphic, Linhof Technika) with rollfilm backs (Adapt-a-Roll, Horseman, Calumet) and, last but not least, the oldest of the bunch, the mighty 1910 Kodak Pocket Folding Special 3A, a great camera still capable of delivering outstanding 6x14 panoramic pictures with its Kodak Zeiss Anastigmat lens.

NB: I am not a collector. I really use all these cameras.

Cheers,

Abbazz

Frank, that photo makes the Hassy look larger than life. It may be the company it keeps.

My medium format gear is listed below.
 
Jenni, planning to sell the C220 maybe?
Do you have a wide lens for it? say, the 55mm?

If yes, please consider me as first to be interested:)
 
I have some MF, yes...
Most extensively I used lately the super ikonta 6x6... great simple camera and i love its portability. The only thing is, it can't focus close:(
The Kowa Six 6x6 slr can... but that's a huge beast. Still have to try it out, i wonder if that will ever happen.
Does anybody know if a Hasselblad (c/cm etc) is smaller than the kowa six?
 
a few of those below and some more like a Mamiya 7II, hassy, Iskra, Diacord, R'flex 2.8 E, etc.

I was at the stop the war demo in London today and there were Mamiya 7s everywhere; I've hardly seen them anywhere before today.
 
Pretty high turn-out, I think, and it kept me occupied for three or four hours. I had fun photographing the watchers, mainly. It was a good day.
