By the time I get up to that length, I like the magnification of the reflex, and since I'm not making chromes or 106x225 blow-ups, the 105 2.5 Nikor, and 180 2.8 ED are just fine, thank you very much. Would I take an R6.2 and 90 and 180 Leica R lenses if they were given to me? Of course. But I don't think they're going to be, so what was good enough for virtually everyone whose work is preserved in Requium is good enough for me.. B.

So I went out and bought a Hasselblad.
