Last year, Fujifilm had a prototype folding medium format camera in their booth that all the film shooters were drooling over (see photo below, taken at PMA 2008 by walterick). I made sure to ask about the camera when I met with the Fujifilm folks at PMA this time. The rep I spoke to said the camera was being manufactured by Cosina and would be distributed in the US by THK (distributor of Tokina and Kenko optical products). Shortly after my Fujifilm meeting, I talked to Ken Rockwell who said he’d heard the same story but was told by THK that CameraQuest was the US distributor. I checked the CameraQuest Web site and the camera was listed at the top of the page as the Voigtlander 667. There’s no price or delivery date yet on the Fuji / Voigtlander 667 folder, but CameraQuest does have a waiting list for people who want to order the camera.

I knew you’d like it, Brian. And now it seems it’s more than just a rumor. Do you think it could compete with your Holga for flyfishing photos?

Funny you should say that John!
I have been trying to find a way to incorporate my Bessa into that too, I just haven’t found a way yet.
Any idea on the US price?
