What I find is that with the 6x6, I can print 11x14 with Tri-X and the prints look about as nice as 11x14 prints from ISO 100 35mm film, like FP4. The comparison isn't exact, but it's close. I tend to use the big camera for different subjects... cityscapes, stuff from tripods, night shots, and so on. It is of course the case that the Mamiya isn't as good in dark places and with fast subjects. But it certainly holds its down for everything else, with a nice incremental improvement in print quality. Pete - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
