I am looking for a medium format digital camera to purchase.

Does anyone have any recommendations?

  Hi Donna,

The Hasselblad H1 is advertised alot. I believe Bronica and Fuji also make medium formats with digital back compatibility.

You might want to look into digital backs for your medium format camera since the camera and back will most likely be seperate and costly purchases.

Check out luminous-landscape.com and dpreview.com for information regarding digital backs like those from Leaf, Kodak, and a few others.

That kind of gear tends to be very pricey though...

  Thank you very much Mr.Wing Wong!

I knew that I had read about it somewhere but it's not a product that's advertised much in the general photo mags.

I'll check out the site that you recommended and I'll see if B&H has it for sale. It's probably something that has to be specially ordered.

I have wanted a med format camera for about 15 years but I thought that I'd wait until I had a good reason to use it. I can definatly use it now! (Especially the digital version)

I appreciate the immediate feedback!!
