Please, please get me one of those! 6x7 in my pocket. I have a 6x9
Moskva-5 folder now, and Slobodan can tell you just how satisfying one
of those can be to use (not much).

Richard, you don't need to get to that right/left side (depends on
where you are standing). All settings can be done from the open side.

An 80mm on a 6x7. Nice angle of view. I've often looked at a Plaubel
but they just cost too much.

I don't usually care much about new equipment coming out, but this one
will definitely catch and hold my attention.

Daniel
