@[email protected] I have the Mamiya 500mm which I modified to mount on an XF, have yet to use it beyond experiments. I don’t take it with me, but the 300mm isn’t too bad. I tend to stop with the 150mm (or occasionally a Zeiss 180mm if I really want a heavy manual setup)

@[email protected] I had a really interesting answer from an exhibition curator last year who insisted that non-chemical photography simply isn’t photography. While I don’t agree he was at least coherent about it which made for an interesting perspective.

@[email protected] yeah, the portability is really the only justification. It’s a modern Hasselblad SWC, there is a market, but very small. I do expect I’ll end up buying one once I own an IQ4

@[email protected] it’s smaller enough that it could fit in my normal day bag, and wideness solves the need for any shift

@[email protected] you’re really not helping the temptation to buy an XC
