Medium format cameras for bigger negatives

Medium format cameras use larger film than standard 35mm cameras. That bigger negative gives more detail, smoother tones, and a different way of working. It is slower, more deliberate, and often more rewarding when you want a careful photograph.

This collection can include 120 film cameras such as TLRs, SLR systems, folders, rangefinders, and studio cameras, depending on what we have sourced. Medium format is especially loved for portraits, landscapes, fashion, still life, and slower documentary work.

At Analogue Shop in Amsterdam, we check used medium format cameras for the practical issues that matter: shutter, film advance, focusing, bellows where relevant, viewfinder condition, lens clarity, and general handling.

Medium format camera questions

  • Most medium format cameras use 120 film, not 35mm film. Some rare cameras or adapters are different, but 120 is the normal format.
