Indeed.

There's a Catalyst hiding in the first one as well.

Prices are sky high - I sold a hasselblad X pan II (Fuji version) in 2017 for £800 now it’s close to £7k
The Rolleiflex and Contax medium format have tripled in price
Same with hasselblad and inc 35mm quality compacts

Only bargain are SLR’s

do and Ebay search "medium format" plenty of nice stuff under 1k

Yes. I was looking at getting a cheap Konica Pearl or Mamiya Six folder. I can’t afford the outlay for something more exotic though.
If anyone is interested in thinking of selling a couple of cameras.
A Nikon D200 DSLR body and a Chinon CE4 SLR with Pentax 50mm f1.7 lens. Both bargains

Balda 6 x 9 bought for £5 years ago. Interesting pictures using colour film, as the lens isn't colour corrected, since it is from the B&W era. Now just an ornament.

Lovely camera - read a review of a 6x6 balda on 35mmc.com does it work? I’d be shooting some B&W with it !

It's been gathering dust for a long time. So it would need a thorough clean. Fancy taking it on?
