645 Overview (4983 words) |
 | The Pentax 645 also features a unique vertical tripod socket that is of great advantage in solving the center of balance issue (of vertical tripod flop) common to all 645 SLRs. |
| On the minus side(IMO), the 645 Pro/Super is not built to the same standard that the Pentax is and not nearly the somewhat higher standard that the Bronica achieves. |
| Big caveat is that the Bronica 645 system is expensive and the lenses are usually a half stop slower (50 2.8, 75 2.8 and 150 3.5 are the same as the Mam/Pentax counterparts) and don't focus as closely (except for the newest 110-220 zoom, which focuses to a very close 1 meter throughout the range). |
| Contax 645 (2712 words) |
| I decided that the Contax 645 would be the platform that I would use to investigate these exciting new developments. |
| 645 is where the action is; where the latest technology is being developed and brought to market. |
| Though the Contax 645 has every modern electronic convenience known, it also is in many ways a traditionalist's camera, and I greatly appreciate this. |
