I have thought about it, honestly, for many years - but it just seems like too much of a pain in the a**e. I really like the look of the 645, didn't really like the 67 (sorry brothers), especially the finder. Its been a constant should I, shouldn't I situation. I think what has ultimately stopped me is that I just don't get enough time to engage my pasisions for landscapes these days due to family commitments and the fact that I work long hours so every moment with them is precious. In years to come I can drag the kids over mountains with me - and maybe they can carry the heavy MF gear! The developing and viewing really puts me off too - stuck with specialist places at expensive prices, not being able to view the slides except on a light table under a loupe or scanning - expensive for a proper film scanner, and lots of work. 35mm film is 'good enough' for my purposes in that respect. Digital would be too - at a stretch, if only it could do wide angles.
