i went to dig ard for this info for future MF users' reference. this started becos some CS asked for such info in one of my query threads here. hope its of help!
got this info from another website. the guy hasn't updated it. so i hope the info is still relevant.
Focal length
28mm (in 35mm) = 45mm (in 6x4.5) = 45mm (in 6x6) = 60mm (in 6x7)
50mm (in 35mm) = 80mm (in 6x4.5) = 80mm (in 6x6) = 110mm (in 6x7)
105mm (in 35mm) = 180mm (in 6x4.5) = 180mm (in 6x6) = 210mm (in 6x7)
200mm (in 35mm ) = 350mm (in 6x4.5) = 350mm (in 6x6) = 500mm (in 6x7)
Camera Formats - obtained from luminous-landscape.com
6 X 4.5 cm
This is a rectangle that is very close in proportion to the 8X10" print format and will enlarge to this format with very little cropping needed. The most popular cameras in this size are the Mamiya 645, the Pentax 645, Bronica 645 and the Contax 645. These cameras are the most like 35mm cameras in size and handling. Most now offer autofocus and extensive automation. They are the smallest SLRs that use roll film. 645 cameras get 15 or 16 frames to a roll of 120 film.
6 X 6 cm
6X6 is the most popular roll film format. Why is this? Part of the reason is that this square contains both a vertical and a horizontal composition on the same frame. A 6X6 image is composed of a vertical 6X4.5 and a horizontal 6X4.5. No need to rotate the camera. No need to rotate the film back. Just take one shot and get both compositions. Some people, myself included, also find a square image very appropriate for some subjects. One gets 12 frames to a roll of 120. 6X6 cameras give 12 exposures from 120 film.
6 X 7 cm
6X7 is very popular for several reasons. Like 645 the format it enlarges to an 8X10" print with little cropping. Though only slightly larger than 6X6. There are four popular cameras offering this format; the Mamiya 7II, the Pentax 67II and the Mamiya RB & RZ67. The Bronica GS1 is also a contender. One gets 10 frames to a roll of 120 with this format, and either 20 or 21 frames on 220 film, depending on the camera.
