Medium format

The divison between formats have changed over time, but the medium format typically uses roll film that is 60 mm wide. A 35 mm wide format is miniature, while a 40 mm used to be called miniature, but may be considered medium now.

Upwards, the division is more easily defined, since large format camera use sheet film[?], not rolls.

All medium format cameras manufactured today use the 120 film format:

• Bronica
• Contax
• Fuji
• Hasselblad, who set the standard for the medium format in professional photography in 1948
• Horseman
• Kiev[?]
• Mamiya
• Pentax[?]
• Rollei, including the Rolleiflex[?]
• Seagull
