The Polaroid will also take a mamiya back with the right adaptor. It is a nice camera with a sharp lens. The usual darkslide stuff applies (don't mean to be condescending butI don't know what MF experience you have). The lens, if I remember right, is a 127mm and it is good, but not brilliant, at handling flare. The ones I've used didn't have a lens hood, so maybe a black flag on a clip would do. I keep meaning ot buy one, but ewverytime I see one I either can't afford it or can't find a rollfilm back adaptor.
