From the archives - Winter with the GA645Zi

I've owned two medium format film cameras, the Holga 120 (if that counts) and the Fujifilm GA645Zi, which is basically a giant medium format point and shoot. 

The GA645 Zi

I found the medium format workflow to be a bit too much of a faff, and I missed seeing film grain, so Simon (a local vintage camera nerd/repairman), is in the process of refurbishing it to be resold. Apparently the flex cable was already failing. 

Gore warning!!

I did have fun with it, took it on a couple solo hikes and hikes with Alec and Dan, here are a random collection of pics:

The GA645 Zi prints the date, aperture, and shutter speed on the frame border, if you're wondering what those red letters are.
