This is pretty close to my travel setup, sort of.  Recently I've taken the 
GA645Wi with me, for medium format; I've had excellent results.  The 
metering is not too bad, and manual over-ride is easy enough (except in 
regard to focusing).  Lens is gorgeous.  I'd much rather fondle a 
Rolleiflex, but there's no denying that the Fuji is a much better beast for 
street work.  In fact, my best Rollei shots were invariably taken with a 
tripod.
