One big advantage is the size to cart to distant 'shores' but also when I
use MF I find the inherent DOF limitations often cramp my 35mm upbringing
and using the smaller format certainly gives you more DOF when you get in
close.

Paul is clearly mastering yet another digital 'wonder': stacked focus
images. The darkroom is looking even more cobwebbed ;-)
