Hello Charles,

Considering your tight budget, what might be best for you is to get a good vintage medium-format camera on eBay.

What kind of camera format are you looking for?  6x6, 6x4.5 or 6x9?

You could get a good 6x6 twin-lens reflex. A Rolleicord with a Schneider lens will be just at the top of your price range (but not Rolleiflex because it will sell around $600. This would be the absolute best buy!).

You could also try to look for a good folding camera. At the top of your price range, look for cameras such as a Voightlander Bessa or a Zeiss Ikon Ikonta. Down the price line, you could get a good Franka Solida or Franka Rolfix (6x9) and still have plenty of money to buy film. I've got a Rolfix myself and it works wonderfully.

Good luck with your project,

Guy Glorieux

Hi,

I'm looking for a good medium format camera (120
film) with lens and other accessories, ready to shot,
for a personal photo project.
My budget is very, very small so I have just US$150
to spend on it. Anybody have some good old but working
medium format camera to sell me for this price ???

Yours,

Charles
