Light enough to carry around on hikes, very good in the studio, no major design flaws or quality issues, a very recommended camera. In fact it is more likely for you to miss the focusing or have motion blur than for the lenses to show their weaknesses.Īll in all, probably the best 6x7 SLR out there if you have budget limits. Electronically controlled shutter seems very reliable. The build is very solid (although there is plastic covering over the body). Third, this camera's quality is very good. Second, this camera is pretty straightforward, very little nonsense in its design, it really is down to the essential. Given the proper accessories, this camera can shoot anything from candids to macro, portraits, landscape, whatever. First of all it is an entire system, and the camera can be made fit for different purposes : from a minimalist WLF+100mm configuration to a larger prism finder + extension tubes + lens hood + grip + flash setup where it looks monstruous. I have been using it for three years, it has been my first medium format, and probably will remain my prefered. I can only approve them, since the Bronica GS-1 really is a wonderfull camera. Lots of good reviews for this camera are very positive.

However, if you want to be part of the present crowd of photographers who murder their images in photoshop with skin smoothing and blowing out highlights, then this camera is probabley not right for you. Interestingly, just a 10MP scan from a positive out resolves my Canon 5D MKII with L glass.

I can't see how people can say full frame digital is as good a MF. Along with using professional scanning equipment like Imacons, the results are breath taking. And believe me, this camera does not fail in this department. Of course, the ultimate goal of the camera is to produce results that non of my full frame digital cameras are able to do. Most times I will use the camera on a tripod when critical focus is important, but with most other work, the camera is fine being hand held. I might get myself a Bettie screen to over come the focus problems that I sometimes get. The lenses/ focus screen are dim, but most time I have good lighting in the studio.
Not the easiest camera to use, especially using it in portrait work. So I sold the kit and have brought a mint condition GS-1 with rotary finder, 3 lenses, 65mm, 110mm & 150mm, all for under £700. I found the Brionica SQ-Ai was not an ideal format for studio work. It's a shame, but as photography is constantly being devalued all the time, running a 6圆 camera I was pricing myself out the middle wedding market. This year was the first year that I completly stopped using film at wedding.
