Should I buy a MAMIYA 7 II or use my Nikon D300
A lot of points have been made already... While the Mamiya 7 (or 7II, not really that much difference) is excellent, maybe even wonderful (I own one with 65+80mm lenses), I wonder if another kind of MF camera would be more suitable for shooting interiors. If you don't have to buy it new, there's a lot of great stuff out there, such as the Mamiya RB/RZ systems that allow a lot of flexibility (in terms interchangeable backs and viewfinders, helicoid focusing, wide range of lenses, the whole works), and no longer cost neither an arm nor a leg to buy. Also systems from Pentax, Fuji (the 6x8 ones), Hasselblad, Rollei spring instantly to mind. Actually I don't know THAT much about interior shooting, I guess perspective control is not a required feature? If it was, some kind of technical camera along the lines of Linhof Super Technika might be in order. The Mamiya 7/7II would be, and IS, my #1 choice when one has to lug it around outdoors though. |
