The price of classic cameras is getting outrageous. The 7ii is now $6,000.

>just film on digital

Some of us consider ourselves camera historians, but now it is literally impossible to get most of the classics due to zoomers buying them up and cranking up the costs.

It's all digital, dumbass.
>Some of us consider ourselves camera historians
You're not a historian, you're a hoarder who doesn't take photos. If you were a historian you'd have only a few 1800s and 1900s cameras and a massive amount of research into the field, you wouldn't be rage scrolling ebay for meme cameras you heard about on reddit.

6k with how many lenses? 3?? It's an incredible camera, but a little overrated imo.

Zoomers don't have that type of money.
Also stop crying. You can always find something for cheap on the used market if you venture outside of your comfort zone.. what's that? You need money back guarantee and free shipping? and you have to only buy this thing that you desire instead of looking for good deals in general? OK, pay market price on ebay then.
>>4526817
These are the same folks who are seething if somebody finds something cheap out in the wild because "they should have left it for the next hypothetical person in need".
>>
>>4526851
You can still find a lot of things cheap on ebay. You just gotta be patient and knowledgeable.

I'd like to have a Pentax 67 or mamiya 7ii cause my current mamiya rb67 it's good but also the widest lens is only 50mm which isn't quite wide enough. They're also lighter and easier to use, but yeah they're way expensive, at least the Pentax 67 with a 45mm is cheaper than a 7ii with a 43mm. I could buy either of these cameras if I wanted to, but I refuse to spend used car money on a film camera that might shit itself out of principle. If I'm gonna spend that kind of money, 3-6k, it would be better spent on a digi upgrade. Shame cause I love shooting medium format film

>Noooo you can't buy cameras and use them to take photos, only vintage "historians" (faggots) like me are allowed to buy old hardware
