Context
Fuji released the GF670 in 2009, seventeen years after their previous 6×7 model. That marked a return to the medium format rangefinder market. It shared commonalities with cameras like the Plaubel Makina, and the production run lasted approximately five to six years. A wide-angle variant, the GF670W, was also announced. The Voigtlander Bessa III is the same camera under a different name, sold at a similar price.
Market
The GF670 has a cult following and is hard to find on the market. One user report calls it "nearly impossible to find for sale." Original pricing was around $1899 - $2400 at launch.
