Focusing is also a lot smoother on the CFe/CFi lenses and I think the lens mount is better too. But yeah like Yond said, none of that makes a difference to image quality, they're all the same optically. The T* coating helps for contrast and flare but it's not like something amazingly different.

I need to do some soul searching, but there's a fair chance I'll be joining the Chamonix squad at the end of the class.

Soul-searching is not a prerequisite for joining the Chamonix club.

Question for any of you who are more into TLR shooting... which would you search out and consider "affordable"? I've been looking to expand my MF shooting, already own a Mamiya RZ67II but it's huge, so I've been looking towards a Yashica Mat 124 or something along those lines of size and weight, but there are too many models to choose from. Reviews are all over the place, so I'm putting my trust in goons. What TLR would you get and why?

The Minolta Autocord is a good option if you're on a budget.

All I want is one gosh-dang wide angle film camera lens that works right. (The 28/2.8MD is a low-contrast ghost hunter due to internal haze, it just happens to have decent centering.)

Every time someone posts something from a Pentax 6x7 I really want one. I got the chance to hold one today and wow it's big, I knew it was big but gently caress is it hella big. Kind of tempered that want a little bit.

Just look up photos taken by a P67 with the 105/2.4.

I never use a tripod with my Hasselblad, but I definitely try never to go below 1/60 unless absolutely necessary.

I finally developed about two years worth of film. New Mexico is cool:







Y'all post some great stuff here. I'm heading to Japan in six weeks and I'm hoping I can even get a couple shots that are on alkanphel's level.

Nice photos! And I'm sure you'll get some great stuff in Japan, it's a wonderful place to shoot!

I'm going to Israel soon, so I thought I'd actually go back and follow through with getting the medium format camera I wanted last year. I really wanted to shoot square 6x6, but looking everything over it seems like the Pentax 645 is probably the best place to start? My budget is kind of tight and I like the idea of just going from 35mm/a DSLR to something comparable. Am I on the right track?

Grab something like a Minolta Autocord if you want a value for money 6x6 camera. If you still want a DSLR shaped camera, get a Pentax 67. Don't waste your time with 645.
