Only thing holding me back is that I'd have to sell my Hassy rig (203FE, 80mm and 50mm FE) - which I think I'd regret. I have played with idea of selling the 203FE and 50FE and replacing it with a regular old 500 series box. Thats all I really need. The 203FE is a lovely thing - but really too much for my needs.
