The only advantage to 6x7 is it makes a better presentation on a light table. 20x24 inch prints you can barely tell the difference between 645 and 6x7. And that's darkroom prints. Inkjets for sure no difference. Me I'd rather get 12 or 16 on a roll than 10 on a roll. A 6x7 transparency on a light table for some odd reason looks twice the size of a 6x6 square. I wonder what that optical illusion is called. A 6x7 on the light table blows a 6x6 or memory of it away. I really think that's why Herb Ritts and Anne Liebowitz shot in that format moving from 6x6 And I'd rather have a Mamiya 6x6 rangefinder camera. But I can look through the sports finder of my Rolleiflex. And shoot with a Zeiss made in Germany 2.8 planar. And I have a Graflex Pacemaker speed graphic 2x3 The Fuji GF670 folder seems pretty darned interesting http://photo.net/medium-format-photography-forum/00OF7F http://static.photo.net/attachments/bboard/00O/00OFPs-41430584.jpg Fits right in your pocket!
