Mamiya RB67
When I decided to buy a medium format camera, I looked at an RB67, and easily dismissed it. You need hands the size of a gorilla, and it really ought to be sold with a Benbo tripod welded to the bottom.
A kind friend lent me her ?new? RB over Christmas - £250, and a lot of black paint missing. I still won?t be buying one: it is a camera I respect, but I certainly don?t love it!
But if you want (or need) the versatility of bellows focussing, you may buy one. If you need a camera engineered like a battleship (and every bit as user-friendly), you may buy one. If you want excellent results, and don?t mind ergonomics that are just right for an octopus, you may buy one. If you take landscapes or portraits professionally, there?s a good chance you already own one.

Advantages: good levels, storyline, graphics and sound effects. Disadvantages: not for the faint hearted

The year is 1967, and you will soon encounter 'fear, chaos and the atrocities of the vietnam war' including, napalm bombardments, vietcong booby traps and prisoner of war camps. with the use of excellent sound effects and visual graphics shellshock proves itself to be among the top of the list when it comes to outstanding playsttion 2 games, it offers a great story line with brilliant levels which arnt too easy but not impossible, as like some games. I found it to be very underated for what it was compared to medal of honour and call of duty. i give this game A*! ...
Advantages: its small and light Disadvantages: fiddley
To be honest, this was the best mobile I ever had. My dad bought it for me from Woolworths about 4-5 years ago, for £129.99. I loved, and still do almost everything about the phone. It was the first colour screen mobile I had, and I loved they joy stick. The network it was on originally was O2, but I went and unlocked it so it was sim free. It's very light aswel which was another advantage, and my GD67 was blue and silver in colour. It comes with a calendar, so you can put reminders on there, it had WAP, many wall-paper ( the main screen) to choose from, and quite a few different ringtunes. I was quite surprised how many numbers and text messages that the mobile can hold. I also liked the fact that you could change the back of the phone, as in you coul could out a picture and insert in the back, as the case is clear. I currently have ...
