loghill great photo set.

Today I want to give you a look at my Rheinmetall Weltax. I got the cam from my grandfather. He bought it around 1958. It´s a medium format camera use rollfilm and produce 6x6 negatives. It´s real work to shoot with, because it´s full manual. The difficultest part is estimate the distance. But if you make it right, the camera produce wonderful pics.

I scaned some pics to show you how the camera works. I think it does a nice, what always called as bokeh.

Is this your Pentagon six on the avatar pic? Heavy stuff!!!
-
Chuck: no, that's a pic I ripped from an old Pentax 6x7 ad
I never had the Pentacon, but lots of my favorite pics on flickr have been shot with the Biometar. I had the Kiev 60 with a 50mm CZJ and 80mm Volna for a while, the russian equivalent. Yes, very heavy and the Kiev is unfortunately just as heavy as unreliable.
Here it is with the CZJ Flektogon:

I think Kiev 60 is the best camera ever made. I know it might be a little tricky (I have two bodies so it's more likely to have one working), but it really delivers awesome frames every time. By far the best MF to shoot with. I have 80mm, 120mm and 180mm Zeiss optics for it and the 50mm on WTB list.
Here's a set from Savonia I shot with it.
