using a 645 for stock photography
Hi all,
a little help could go a long way, i am relatively new to medium format photography and i am leaning on purchasing a Bronica etr-si mainly for wedding shoots and also landscapes but i would like to make the jump from 35mm to mf for the image quality for stock photograpy / librarys, do you think the jump from 35mm to 645 is big enough or do you recomend the trasition up to 6x6 or 6x7 the 645 is quite a light camera system to handle also the etrsi has the leaf shutter system benefiting ttl flash any help on this issue would be greatly apreciated, many thanks Dave. |

Hi, I do all my travel stock photography with a Bronica RF645. But I also use 6X7 and 6X9 out of the car or in the studio. In my opinion my Bronica is good enough and gives very sharp enlargements at least up to A1. Cheers, Michiel Fokkema |

Larger sizes will sell better in some - not necessarily all - markets and the fact that they can give more cropping options appeals to some buyers. But larger sizes mean more bulk and weight for you to carry, and more cost in consumables, which may well not be justified by the marginal extra sales _unless_ you are specialising in one of the areas like calendar pictures where buyers really do tend to want big slides. So think about your (end user) markets, and then talk to the libraries that serve those markets. Chances are that 645 will be fine in most markets. Peter |
