Even before digital I hung the 'blad on the linhof for movements, etc. I have adapters to hang just about anything on the 5D. I can hang the 5D, R8 and M8 w/visoflex on the Cambo Ultima. I can put R lenses on the M and M lenses on the R all great fun. Yet when serious, frustration free, work needs doing; it's "system" congruence all the way. I'd love to hear from anyone who can weigh in on the brightness and usability of the 5D III view finder with manual R glass.
