I currently own a Canon Rebel 2000 -and would like to move up to medium format for improved "portrait" quality. I am amateur, only taken 1 general photography class, have many guides and books on manuel functions of cameras, understand ( to some degree) aperature and fstops and shutter speeds etc,
Thinking of purchasing a Contax 645 --
First off, is this camera have the automatic functions of my current SLR, I have read some on it and understand this camera does not have fast shutter speeds (which is fine) since I would keep my rebel around for those "candid" or event shots... , can little ole "non-pro" me work it?
I know these are pricy, but it would be worth the money if it will help with improved quality of my pictures.. I understand a lot comes from lighting etc... which I plan to get to eventually, but for those outside lighting opportunities, will this camera be a considerable improvement over my current 35mm SLR?
Any info would be greatly appreciated...
