My life has too much. I don't need more. I like to shoot with a Hasselblad and a Horseman, neither of which can be focused through the viewfinder. I don't use a ground glass. I have to estimate the distance. I get great results. Both cameras are manual. No batteries. I do have a hand-held lightmeter, but that is almost superfluous. I know what light demands what because I almost always use the same film and develop it myself. Consistency and simplicity. Printing is another matter. That can be complex. But when I print, I print with quality in mind, not quantity. That takes the pressure off. Doug
