I keep going back to maybe gettnig a 'blad, well...just because. But that's definitely getting out of the realm of hand-holding. I stumbled onto this site: http://www.certo6.com/ I'm really tempted to get a restored folder. Sure, I'd have to stop down to f8 or so, and that means it's only hand holdable in decent light... But it's just so tempting. I might just keep saving my MF funds until I can get a Rollei. Might as well go for the best, eh? I was hoping a Bronica RF or Mamiya 6 or 7 would be hand holdable in low light. Just a big Leica cousin. But I'm hearing differently. If I'm going to be stuck on a tripod, might as well start getting some mirror slap to make things interesting. :) -- Eric http://canid.com/
