"The Texas Leica"

Fuji GSW690 III

actual image of my new baby/beast, ain't she pretty?


"An incredible lens with a body thrown in for free. Fuji's medium format lenses are among the finest in the world. If you can live with using a rangefinder rather than a SLR, this camera will give you tack sharp 40" x 60" prints. They equal in quality the output of any 4"x5" view camera I've seen"...

so yeah... this is my new toy, the thing is huge! but a lot fun to use. and is not that big in medium format terms( it is a 6x9 format, about 6.5 times bigger then a regular 35mm neg).
This camera (rangefinder) gives me a whole new photographic experience. It is totally Mechanical, and Manual... Not even a built-in light meter :)

new pictures have been added to the photography page. ( though none are from this camera)
