I left the M system at home and took only my Bronica GS-1 system (6x7 format). I shot about 50 rolls, 80% hand-held, and returned with quite a few keepers -- and, yes, sore shoulders. I wanted to get the advantage of the larger image size. Did I miss features of the M system? Sure: the wide shot capability (SA 21 f3.4), less volume and weight, its unobtrusiveness and silence, and its somewhat better glass. But one glance at the 100SW and Provia III chromes in 6x7 format on the light table made the sore shoulders worth it.///Dick Baznik At 11:38 PM 8/2/00 +1000, Miro Jurcevic wrote: >When you look at the bulk and size of a Hasselblad, it can only really be >used in zero gravity or very carefully.
