Bronica ETRSi Medium Format

j_mcquillen · Jan 10, 2005

Am thinking of stepping up to medium format, and have seen a second-hand Bronica ETRSi for sale - was wondering if anyone uses this camera and could tell me how they find it...

Also a few more general questions...

The one I've seen comes with a 75mm lens - what does this relate to on a 35mm?

What picture format does the ETRSi give... square, 2/3 etc?

Does £450 sound a decent price for a second hand model with a 75mm f2.8 lens, in decent condition?

Thanks

im not sure what that particular model looks like, but i can tell you this. for that price, be sure to inspect all the parts thoroughly. i bought an SQ-A and really checked the viewfinder, lens, 120 back, and the slide. inside of the body as well. luckily with my cam, it was in DAMN good shape!

hope that helps some.

I use an earlier model, the ETR. Good solid camera. What does the camera come with? (Prism finder, metered or non, handle, etc.? Check Ebay, they always have Bronicas listed and that will give you an idea of going rates. The ETRSi is a 6 X 4.5 format. Incidently, Tamron has announced they are discontinuing Bronicas.
