  1. <p>The RZ is a beast but I still suggest to choose the RZ (or another equal medium format camera) because I doubt you will be satisfied with the image quality of 35mm film (suggested Canon A). 120mm film is a lot more comparable to the 'digital' image quality of a Canon 5D. With 35mm film I get decent 8x10 prints and in a pinch a bit bigger but 120 film from a RZ is a different story.<br> Like people have said what is required as a start: RZ Pro (I or II) body, 120 film back, waist level finder and appropriate lens (RZ 180mm or 250mm). What I would like to add is a light meter and tripod. A light meter is required for exposing film beacuse the waist level finder has no built-in light meter like the metering prism.For ambient light you can use almost any meter but for flash you need an ambient/flash meter.<br> The RZ is reliable and the only problems I have had with it is some light leaks in the film back due to degraded foam seals, that I eventually have replaced myself.</p>
