The medium format is truly the format in the middle. It combines
many of the benefits of 35 mm photography with those of the large
format, making a medium format system an excellent choice for
almost all types of photography from candid action with a hand-held
camera to critical studio work from a tripod. Special chapters are
devoted to these different applications and the type of equipment
that most likely meets your photography needs. This book explains
clearly the medium format's benefits, advantages, and disadvantages
and provides a comparison of the medium format to other formats so
you can decide whether it is right for you and your
photography.
