I have no budget right now, but looking at the XPan pics made me drool after
this:

I know it will be VERY different from the XPan as the XPan is handheld
camera whereas 6x17 is get-a-sherpa camera, but oh man, the size of the
negatives.....

Makes S2 looks like a half frame, and the Nikon FX a quarter frame and the
4/3rd a... 16th frame.
