[Leica] I have saved a soul

[vick.ko at sympatico.ca (Vick Ko)]

That might be the topic of our next meeting.

I was going to show him my new Focomat V35.  

I think the classical lenses will go back up in price/value as digital backs
become more prevalent.

And classical techniques will re-emerge as users discover the limitations of
the digital gear and processes.

Vick

Well, I HOPE you told him that he has to shoot B&W and develop it himself!!

I keep thinking that, with all of the popularity of dSLRs and digicams, the
price of film cameras, especially medium format, will crash. That doesn't
seem to be happening yet. I put up an e*** search for "new medium format"
cameras, thinking that dealers will be dumping their Bronicas, Mamiyas,
Pentaxes, etc. The only new medium format hits that come up each day are for
Holgas!
