I agree, but I will like to point this:

The Mamiya 7 system lenses can match or even surpass anything on earth  
for MF, either Zeiss or whatever. If the question is about a complete  
MF system useable out of the studio whitout too much pain and covering  
all the photographic needs, then the result are a lot more tight,  
comprising the two brands everyone is thinking about, and clearly the  
Hasselblad is the favourite, and also, smaller.



Any day above ground is a good one.
