Fujifilm GA645Zi in the landscape


Most descriptions I've read of the Fujifilm GA645Zi medium format film camera present it as a point-and-shoot that uses 120 film, which is certainly true. But its compact build means that it is also a fine camera to carry along with you on a hike out in the wild. It is compact enough that you will actually take it with you most of the time. The lens is phenomenal and the built in flash is very handy. The prices are also phenomenal these days, and being an electronic device from the 1990s it could turn into a brick at a moment's notice. The only problem I've ever had with the Fuji is the ancient autofocus. It takes some finessing at times.
