The Mamiya 6-7 glasses are on the same line in quality and performance that german's and, in the other hand, having the truly best glass available isn't as crucial as it is in 35mm, so if you're planning to buy anything take care that the system fills up your expectatives, such lenses (all RFs have a limited set available), ability to do macro work, or digital back compatibility. > If I'm going to be stuck on a tripod, might as well start > getting some mirror slap to make things interesting. :) As everything in life we can't have it all. I love my Mamiya 7, but I love my TLR also, and my leica M. Just different tools for different moods :) Saludos ----------------------------------------- http://imaginarymagnitude.net/blog/
