[Leica] D700 or D7000

[mark at rabinergroup.com (Mark Rabiner)]

I'm looking forward to a nice weekend with a rental back for my hassy in
which I'd put my 100mm 3.5 planar to good use. I'm hoping they can be
crunched on my Macbook Pro here.
Someone on the list was nice enough to offer to lend me his but I am not a
borrower or a lender be.
I'm sure afterwards I'll never see straight again.
On the LUG Bob's pix certainly make a strong statement.
Why dont you post some of your medium format stuff George?!?!
Maybe sans Flash.
