What to check before you buy a medium format camera
- Resolution: 50 MP is plenty for most studio work; 100 MP suits large prints and heavy cropping.
- Lenses: medium format lenses are large and expensive, so plan the lens kit with the body.
- Speed: autofocus and burst speed are slower than full frame, so these cameras suit planned shoots.
- Computer: 100 MP RAW files need a fast computer and lots of storage.
- Service: ask about service support in Pakistan before buying.
Medium format camera types
- Fujifilm GFX: GFX100S II, GFX100 II and GFX 50S II with the widest lens range.
- Hasselblad: X2D and 907X with Swedish design and colour.
- Fixed lens: Fujifilm GFX100RF for street and travel.
Care and maintenance
- Keep the camera and lenses in a dry bag with silica gel packs; humidity causes fungus inside lenses.
- Clean the lens with a blower and a microfibre cloth, never with tissue paper.
- Charge batteries before trips and keep a spare; remove the battery if the camera will sit unused for weeks.
Common mistakes
- Spending the whole budget on the body and none on lenses.
- Not checking that the computer can edit very large files.
- Choosing medium format for sports or events, where full frame is faster.
- Ignoring the warranty and where the service centre is.
