Medium Format

Medium format film cameras come in multiple types. Single-lens reflex, also referred to as SLR cameras, feature a box-shaped body and a waist-level finder, which makes them ideal for close-up and telephoto photography. Twin-lens reflex, or TLR, cameras come with two lenses to help you view the images when shooting. They're affordable and suitable for taking candid photos. Rangefinder cameras feature a special focusing feature that automatically measures the distance between you and the subject, for sharp photos. Medium format panoramic film cameras fully use the film frame for more detailed and fuller images.
