Which will you choose

I have a Hasselblad and RB67 system. I also had 645 systems in the past. I love my RB and I love my Hasselblad. Never liked 645. I have no problem carrying the RB67 with a grip for hours and using it purely handheld, I can easily shoot it down to 1/15. Ok, it can get a bit heavy after 4-5 hours but when I get the film back it is superb. It also makes my Hasselblad look small and light. Somehow I tend to pick the RB more often than the Hasselblad nowadays.

If hasselblad is out of your budget then consider a bronica sq series kit.

Ah, so the RB67 is part of your personal fitness program and not part of your photographic program, isn't it?

I have a Bronica SQ-B (6x6 cm) and a Bronica RF645 (6x4.5 cm) and both are great cameras with excellent glass!!

Works for both!

I love my mamiya 645 pro TL. The 80mm f/1.9 lens is heavenly. I handhold at 1/30 all the time with no issues -- and I am a wee lassie with premature arthritis in her hands.

I rarely shoot in portrait mode, though. Just my personal thing. I imagine the 67 would get a couple points over the 645 for people who prefer portrait mode.

Portrait mode is no bother at all on a 645 if you have a prism finder.

With a waist level finder it's more of a problem.
