After 4 months with the Mamiya RZ67 & 110/2.8…
Film, Inspiration, Kodak Tri-X 400, Mamiya RZ 110mm F/2.8, Mamiya RZ67 Professional Pro II, Q&A, Teaching pointAfter four months with the Mamiya RZ67 and Mamiya RZ 110/2.8 lens, I can say with absolute certainty that this gear (together with Kodak Tri-X 400 film) is superior to anything I’ve ever used before for portraiture.
To think that people are practically giving this film equipment away is very telling of our instant gratification-based culture.
Sometimes, the results are truly worth waiting for.
I’ll be posting new images soon, but in the meantime, please have a look at some of the photographs the combo has yielded for me so far:
