Fuji GF670 / Voigtlander Bessa III

Twofer. BOGO. Freebie. Bonus. All good things, right? Well, pick up a Fuji GF670 and it'll be like getting two cameras for the price of one! That's because the GF670 is hiding a secret. As you can surmise from the name, this is a medium format camera that makes a 6cm x 7cm image, but it can also make a square, 6cm x 6cm image! Yep, it's like an extra camera!

Although this camera is very modern in the film world - it was introduced in 2008 - the Fuji GF670's heritage and pedigree are well established. Its spiritual predecessors, among others, include the wildly popular Voigtlander Bessa line of folding medium format cameras that first appeared in 1929. With modifications and improvements, the Voigtlander Bessa series of cameras remained in production into the 1950s with the last production run of the Bessa II wrapping up in 1956. Alternatively known as the "Bessa III", the GF670 carries on the tradition of being the state-of-the-art folding, medium format cameras.

Not convinced yet? How about an electronically-precise shutter that's as quiet as a butterfly with sore feet landing on a daffodil? How about a brilliant Fujinon EBC lens? Each of these make a great argument for why the Fuji GF670 should be in your bag. If, in fact, you even bother with the bag. The GF670 folds up into itself to the point that you can almost put it in your pocket. Can't quite fit? Time for a bigger coat. Sleek package, unbelievable lens, huge negative, all in a "pocket" camera. Not bad for two cameras, right?

Seek out one of these special cameras for yourself. Feel the build quality. Try and hear the shutter. Before long you'll be convinced that the GF670 needs to be in your kit. Check that - BOTH of them need to be in your kit.
