Hard to believe but here it is: http://www.fujifilm.com/photokina201...e/gf670w_e.pdf

Start saving now!

Seems like a natural progression from the 8omm model. I'm waiting for the 6x9 wide angle model.

[Steve Smith]

I think you will have to make that one yourself!

Perhaps a shorter version of mine: http://stevesmithphoto.webs.com/pano612.html

Looks like another step forward from Fuji, and perhaps a very brave move on their part, I hope it works out for them,Richard

I agree with Dave waiting for the 6x9 model with interchangeable lenses and format masks

It mentions in the blurb 120 or 220 film, can you still get any 220, I thought it had all been discontinued?

I don't think they will do this range with interchangeable lens, could buy a 6x7 and just file out the film gate!

Kodak still does some colour film in 220 - http://www.ag-photographic.co.uk/por...pack-302-p.asp

Buts it’s a rapidly disappearing format - which is a shame.

I always thought it made more sense than 120

I am quite happy they will never make a 6x9 with interchangeable lenses, I can't justify spending any more on another system. I will stick to the Chamonix with a 6x9 back with the added advantage of movements.

I think fuji did bring out a 6x9 rangefinder with interchangable lenses back in the day.
