Medium Format Cameras
What is medium format photography?
Many consider Medium Format Cameras to be the benchmark in photographic excellence. They feature a large image sensor that renders truly incredible detail even in very low light. Medium Format Cameras can also produce a much wider dynamic range than other formats, this gives photographers more flexibility when adjusting images in post-production. This is the format for professional photographers.

Rangefinder Cameras
How do rangefinder cameras work?
Rangefinder cameras are much lighter and more compact than DSLR cameras. Because they do not feature an internal mirror mechanism their lenses are able to be mounted much closer to the focal plane and therefore render images that are sharper and with less edge distortion. Their near-silent mechanism makes Rangefinders excellent travel companions to street photographers.
