Hi all, new here and hoping to tap into what looks to be massive knowledge base
I have an MPP Microtenchical vi (I think). I've been struggling a bit with what seems to me to be quite a dim screen. Having not very much experience with LF cameras I have no idea if this is normal? It's an old camera, so I'm guessing modern cameras are better in this regard?
I'm assuming that I could change the screen somehow?
But I'm also wondering if just buying a newer camera might be a better economy longer term?
I'm quite happy with the amount of movements it gives me, though I do wonder if I might grow out of it and regret spending money on it...?
I am also really loving shooting this format and can feel myself really getting into shooting more. As such thinking just making an investment that might see me in good stead for a bit longer might be a good investment.
What are people's thoughts?
Can I get a better screen?
Or if I were to chuck a couple or three hundred quid at some sort of newer field camera, would that be a better idea?
Cheers
