If the answer is color I'd sell both and buy a new(er) lens. Even a modern CV. OTOH, if the answer is BW I'd keep both. FWIW, if it were me I'd keep both. Don't buy in to the media elite. Color and this digital thing is just a fad. Tri-X is forever. :-) Collapsables are great if you're accustomed to them. It's easy to forget to extend them if you're not. A word of caution from someone who's been there.
