Last week I (Casey) bought a used Mamiya RZ67 from a small camera shop here in Sendai. A staple in fashion photography (though quickly being supplanted by digital), the RZ67 is a 6x7 medium format camera with a rotating back, which allows you to shoot in landscape or portrait orientations without moving the camera body. It's a modular system, so the lenses, viewfinders, and film backs are all interchangeable. At around 7lbs it's a beast to carry around, but I managed to handhold it all day Saturday while my school was having its annual sports festival.
