A camera that no one is talking about, the Pentax 645z. In this video, I share why this medium format DSLR has become my favorite go-to camera for portrait and fashion work. It’s not about the specs; it’s about the images.
I’ll show you sample photos shot on the 645z paired with legacy Pentax lenses, the 75mm FA and 45-85mm FA zoom, to give you a real look at what this underrated system can produce. Whether you’re curious about medium format, thinking of picking up a used 645 system, or just love seeing beautiful film-like digital files, I hope this video gives you a bit of inspiration.
📷 Lenses used:
• Pentax FA 75mm f/2.8
• Pentax FA 45-85mm f/4.5
