This is one of the first images taken using the Fujifilm GF670 medium format film camera, or the Voigtlander Bessa III as it is known in Europe. It was taken by Scottish photographer Michael G Dougan for Japan Exposures. I'll let you read his review here, but in a few words, Dougan says that he is 'extremely pleased with the camera’s image quality' and that with 'several rolls of Neopan 120 in my pocket, it’s a perfect setup for me.'

Read the full review and see more sample images on Japan Exposures. You can also read our full report on the camera's release in the UK.

Well, I'm embarrassed now, thank you for featuring this.

After having spent a few hours this afternoon in the Philippine sun I can honestly say I'm way more than pleased with this camera, its absolutely fantastic! I'll be sending more images to Japan Exposures soon.

What can I say? The images are excellent, and it's a camera a lot of us (including a lot of our readers) want, so we had to feature it. Keep us updated with new photos :-)
