The silver version is very beautiful. I just picked up an ETRS, I have to say your review of it played a part in confirming my decision to dive into the 6x4.5 world
Nice review of this beauty. Your voice is very pleasing too - so i would like to "hear" and of course see more, Maybe next time with a video out in action.
one other tip, for the winding crank, the pin is CAPTIVE, so no losing it in the field :-) , but you do still need it to use the winder grip, so leave it pushed in, there is a half cresent groove inside the winder mating part that mates with this pin when installed, this drives the winder, THE PIN set on the BASE is only for shutter triggering using the grip button, and the pc-sync contacts for the single contact hot shoe on this grip and also the motor winder (simmilar to the Hasselblad 503cw motor winder, a plastic brick which has some electronics and a battery compartment- the Bronica battery winder uses the BODY's battery!).
great video, that is my camera store to, Glad you found it, great knowledgeable staff, a lot of gear, yes; but if they keep it on shelf, no matter how obscure, like a minox, alpha, etc. they KNOW what it is, how it works, and have a 'mechanic' to service it before sale. (PS: I have Autism to, and they are very understanding, of needs, respectful of my needs ( to physically touch something to be sure it is the camera for me, even if it means a body or lens 'loan' for testing in store, very accomadating!)so I can't reccomend them to beginners highly enough. also, as some of us 'regulars' frequent the store quite often, Please understand, we are not holding things up, we are collectors, enthusiasts, etc, sometimes we saw something on the website, and we need a 'play' to understand it, or see the 'latest thing' they have; or like me, have vision or social disability which means we get lost, in our hobby, so we might not notice you standing there, or understand you need to be 'seen to' urgently, just have some patience please.
Thanks for creating this video! I myself recently got an ETRS and this video does a good clear job of answering some questions I had at the time. I'm sure I'll refer back to it in the future. Thanks, and enjoy!
yes, there is a 'T' setting, this is to save the battery, as in B the shutter is held open by an electro-magnet, so the battery can drain quick, esp. for really long time-lapse style exposures, aka star trail shots, so this is a manual version of bulb, acting like it's counterpart on the LF copal shutters, it takes a touch to turn it off again, T, think toggle switch, one move for on, one for off. ( but don't worry, the phisics of things mean over time the motion of the switch moving is dissolved, so no noticable affect on exposure)- if in any doubt, use the lens cap first, to cover the lens and end the exposure, then hit the switch.
I've seen some Bronica video's but this one looks really cool! Would probably be the way to go for as a beginner Medium Format camera, would like to get into it.
Thanks for the video, excellent review. I am looking to buy one of these after downsizing my camera collection of film cameras. Prices going up fast now
one correction, Hasselblad did make electronic cameras, the mechanical one is the 500 series,the swc and the flexbody/arcbody; the 200/2000 and the 500-El winder cameras are electronic, for the winder, in the el case, and the 200 series, as it had metering, plus contrast/tone control over exposures, so a 'computer' was inside these, as well as for TTL ( a digital term, but has an analogue in the film world called otf {off the film plane}) flash metering.
one observation, you said 'transparency' for the car shots, did you intend it to mean slide film?, as if it was, this, as I understand is very particular for correct exposure metering, no lattitude, maybe try some B&W Ilford HP-5+ NEGATIVE film,this is apparently very 'elastic', and a great choice for beginners, a good lattitude, -1 to +5 stops, ie, if box is 400asa, 200 or up to 1600 is possible to 'rate' this film, with slight grain change, but good response, from what I saw on a youtube comparison. This might allow for the iphone's inaccuracies.

Thank you - yes hope to do so for future videos!

Very interesting. I know nothing about cameras. I’m a long time subscriber to your main channel. Another learning experience for me with this video

The 150mm lens is also a very good lens…..
What do you like about the 150mm? 📷
@@flowermaze___ it makes a very good portrait lens, and is very sharp.

Fantastic video man! Keep It Up : )
Thank you! More to come!
