Thanks for the video - even after such a long time. I just bought a SQ-Am and I'm only used to 35mm. So this series of videos is important for me to learn using my new camera. Pity you stopped posting such a long time ago. Take care.

Fraser, you're the man! I've just picked up an SQ-Ai with 50, 80, 105 & 150 lenses. Motor drive SQi, Speed grip S, 4x 120 backs, 220 back & Polaroid back. ME prism, AE prism, waist level, close up lenses 1 & 2, pro lens hood, remote control and cable release. I can't wait to get started!

Thanks so much! I had bought my Bronica 22 years ago after photography school but left to travel for a few years with my 35 ml, and I just never spent much time with my Bronica. Then digital happened and life happened and art photography got put away. However! I've recently decided to take up film again and this was such a good refresher to get me back into it. Great teaching style too, by the way :-) - Cary

Thanks for producing this series. The most comprehensive guide to this brand that I've seen. I have been looking to try 6x6 for some time and have been looking at the TLR options, but after watching your guide I'm convinced the Bronica is the way to go. Thanks...

Thank you so much for these. I just got an SQ-Ai because I've decided I need to get back to the basics. I loved the comment in the video about just snapping away because it's digital. You've been a great help!

I'm finding very little of the stuff I wanted to know about the ETRSi, which when I was looking to buy mine. Brilliant video.

Thank you for posting all six of the four part series. I really enjoyed them and even learned something about my SQB, I also have two ERTSi's and fancy trading in my 2 ERTS's for a SQAi as it does have a lot going for it in terms of metering.

Excellent video, Charlie. This video and the ones following are applicable to the ETR-Si. I still shoot B&W film. And I have a 40mm, the two zoom lenses, 75mm, and the 150mm. I've compared to my Hasselblad 500 C/M, and I prefer the Bronica ETR-Si. Thank you very much for these videos.

I used all of the popular MF cameras including a Hasselblad 500 CM and my very own Bronica SQ-A. The Bronica lenses were every bit as good as the Zeiss glass, they had proper focusing rings as well as being faster to focus. Best of all you could afford to buy some! Sad that Bronica re no longer with us....

It's a very nice camera, I owned 1 with the 90 degree prism and the motor wind. It's quit heavy compared to the hasselblad. But definitly a good piece.

@fraserhopewell Ah, then you won't be needing that primitive waist-level finder anymore! Allow me to take it off your hands! :) Which prism did you get? How (well) does it work? What metering pattern? Will the camera do aperture priority AE? Please make a vid about the finder when you get time. :) (I've got the Ai, plain prism, 50, 80, and 150mm lenses, and 3 120 and 220 backs. The camera is great fun. The square format is a welcome change, and a compositional challenge as well.)

Hi, I recently got a Bronica SQ-Ai, im wondering if u know any good focusing screen for it, i heard people saying focusing with medium format is more critical than 35mm, a hair off will directly result your negatives end up in hell, it that true? Much respect man

These things are getting even cheaper. I just bought an SQ-A body, 120 back, and 80mm lens for around $120. The waist-level finder is the most expensive thing (other than lenses). They go for close to $200.

Could you please tell me where you found it I would love to get my own. I actually just discovered one at my school and I think it is the best thing ever, but unfortunately I can't steal it from the school.

I was wondering how you think the SQ-A compares to the Mamiya RZ67. I was looking at getting an RB67, but it seems like it's pretty huge. I'd rather not have to use a tripod most of the time, and I'd still like something I can carry around, but I've heard the Bronica is pretty plastic and parts can break pretty easy.

Might sound like a silly question. But are all bronica models comparable with parts? So could i take An etrs lens and have it work on a sq body? Would that work with all the accessories?
@panchoskywalker

No you can't. Lens for etrs won't fit any SQ cameras. There's 3 SQ model, SQ-B, SQ-M, SQ-Ai.
