The Camera: Pentax 6x7 / 67
The Pentax 6x7 is a medium-format SLR that operates much like a giant 35mm camera.
Format: It uses 120 or 220 film to produce large 6x7cm negatives, offering about 4.5 times the surface area of a 35mm frame.
ELF (Eye-Level Finder): This is a standard non-metered prism that allows for traditional eye-level viewing. Some models feature a TTL (Through-The-Lens) metered prism instead.
Build: It is notoriously heavy and robust ("The Beast"), with an all-metal construction and a loud, powerful focal-plane shutter that creates significant vibration.
Operation: It is an electromechanical design requiring a 6V battery to fire the shutter; it will not operate without power
The Lens: SMC / Takumar 105mm f/2.4
Often called the "King" of the Pentax 67 system, this lens is the primary reason many photographers buy into the system.
35mm Equivalent: Approximately 52mm f/1.2, making it a "normal" lens with a field of view similar to the human eye but with significantly more background separation.
Versions: Early versions are labeled "Super-Takumar" or "SMC Takumar," while later versions (post-1989) are labeled "SMC Pentax 67." Older Takumar versions often contain thorium glass, which can develop a distinctive yellow tint over time that some photographers prize for its "warm" character.
Performance: Known for being sharp in the center even wide open at f/2.4, it is a favorite for portraiture and street photography
