Pentax 6x7 Medium Format Camera Body (USED)
The Pentax 6x7 is a legendary medium format single-lens reflex (SLR) camera designed for photographers who demand the unmatched detail and tonal gradation of film photography. Built like an oversized 35mm camera, it delivers the iconic 6x7 format on 120 or 220 roll film, giving you a negative roughly 4.5 times larger than standard 35mm frame size. Whether you are shooting landscapes, fine-art portraits, or outdoor commercial photography, this rugged, reliable camera remains a cornerstone of professional analogue filmmaking.
Uncompromising Medium Format Image Quality
Capturing images at a frame size of 56 x 70mm, the Pentax 6x7 provides exceptional clarity, smooth micro-contrast, and extreme enlargement capabilities. Its focal plane shutter offers precise shutter speeds ranging from 1 second to 1/1000th of a second plus Bulb (B), giving you complete control over high-speed action and long exposures alike. The familiar layout allows seamless transitioning for photographers accustomed to classic 35mm camera ergonomics.
Robust Construction & Adaptable Design
Built with an all-metal die-cast aluminum chassis, the Pentax 6x7 is engineered to withstand demanding field use. It features an interchangeable viewfinder system, accommodating optional eye-level pentaprisms, TTL meter prisms, and waist-level viewfinders. Compatible with a vast lineup of legendary Takumar and Pentax medium format lenses, this body offers tremendous versatility for studio photography, architectural documentation, and wilderness expeditions.
