Decided to buy a new medium format camera. Welcome the Yashica Mat 124g and the woes of medium format film photography. More expensive per frame, you slow your pace down slower than lama, slower than turtle. I'm still having mixed feelings I guess only time will tell. She's slower, more careful, but shooting with a TLR feels good and the waist level finder is a charm once you can snag it. The camera is in pretty good shape with an accompanying leather case. Still yearn the flexibility that 35mm offers, but we shall see.
Yashica Mat 124g, Kodak 125px, Long Beach and Los Angeles, 12/12 shots.
12FV(ghostland).
Spent a few hours today on the portfolio as well. check it.

i love it when you type overlay. your pictures look amazing as they are, but the type overlay gives a different edge. love! it! love that pic of the palm trees reflected against that building, and the last one especially!
ditto regarding "more expensive per frame, you slow your pace down slower than lama, slower than turtle." i've found even i've slowed down with the fe2. but seeing tigran and your medium format photos makes me want to snatch up a hasselblad or a rolleiflex just to see a different perspective.
awesome set, especially diggin the palm tree behind the power lines!
