Hasselblad, if you like the square format!
If you can afford, go for it!

I'd say go 6X6 and go with the SQA-i.
Actually you don't need the prismfinder,
the waistlevel is great except if you do some
more actionlike shots. The Bronica is a great
camera and the lenses I have tried where
superp. I still regret...ah never mind that.

I Very nearly went SQA-i. The square format's always
correct orientation is A Big Plus; in the field and in the
darkroom. The camera sits and stays on top of the
tripod. For action shots it's always ready. With
negatives, landscape or portrait, both the
same when viewing the projected image.
There can be a weight advantage as well. The tripod
can be less weighty and one can do with the eye level
finder. Also chimney finders weigh little. Prism finders are
heavy and more bulky. Also a pain in the neck, literally,
as I found out by buying one of the other two
formats mentioned. Dan
True. But the Zenzanon lenses are great - independent of the shutter.
Shutter slap is a big issue. Try hand-holding a Pentax 6x7 and trying shooting at 1/30 of a second--really impossible. Tripod a most.
