the vz-6617

capture 6X6 to 6X17 without limits

We’re building a camera that offers you creative flexibility to match the framing and format to your subject and composition.

While most medium format cameras lock you in to a set aspect ratio for an entire roll of film, the VZ-6617 allows you to switch from 6x6 to 6x17 and everything in between using our stepless Variable Zone Film Gate™.

Adapt, experiment, and make the most of your roll.

No need to commit to a single aspect ratio for an entire roll. No need to commit to a specific camera body or system based on frame size. Go from sweeping landscape to intimate portrait with the turn of a dial and press of the shutter.

The VZ-6617 uses widely available large format lenses on interchangeable lens cones with an integrated dark slide to allow you to switch lenses and focal lengths mid-roll.
