I recently purchased a used Pentax 645 MF camera with the intention of using it for video and stills. I just finished my first video with it. Altough the video is restricted to 2K (1920x1080 HD) the sensor area, even cropped for video is larger than a full frame camea. The colors and detail are very good, even at 2K. The single frame is not post processed, and there was very minimal post processing on the video.

Here's a single frame of the video I shot with the Pentax 645Z. For lighting, I had daylight coming through two windows and three 22W (150 W equivalent) led soft white bulbs in a desk lamp and two floor lamps.

In the video itself, the Pentax 645 clip is on the right, done with a manual focus 35mm lens, my friend's clip on the left was done with a Nikon D5000 and kit 18-55 lens.

Here's the link to the video.
