As always, I love the stuff.
Just wish you'd give the Rollei a try on the street.

Slobodan,

Thank you for looking. I really like working with a square aspect ratio. I 
have several Hasselblads that I hardly ever use. But the one that I take out 
occassionally for street use is the 903SWC. It's fast, discrete and is 
basically a rangefinder; just have to guess the distances. And it does 
capture  a lot of space. I just don't take it out as often as I do with the 
Leicas so I'm not quite as fast with it. But I really enjoy using it. I've 
also been doing all my 35mm scans with a fluidmount film holder for my Nikon 
Coolscan 9000. I need to shoot some medium format so I can scan that as well 
 and see what I can do with it. Could be fun.

Best,

Carl Socolow
