Also, to me it's weird that because there are so many famous black and white street photos, black and white just seems to look 'right' for this genre.

I find it weird that all the street photographer kids running around haven't adopted the selective colouring fad yet.

Haha, what?

While good street photography is very good, there are also a lot of people running around doing street photography because it seems easy, slightly disruptive, lets you flash your expensive camera, and gives artistic credibility.

The same argument can be made for the horrible fad of selectively desaturating photos so only the subject is in color, which is something I've very seldom seen done well.

I imagined the intersection of these would be bigger by now.

e: intersection, not union

Not really, I just picked up a RZ67 (with a 110mm 2.8 if you wanted to know) so I was kind of curious. A large/medium format thread would be rocking, I doubt any one would want a mamiya thread.

Same thing here, but with a Hasselblad 500C/M. Who starts the thread?
