Markus,

I'm not Shel, but I'm sure you won't mind another opinion.

What you need is not a change in lens lineup, but a second camera body
loaded with an alternative film.  Another film body won't cost much and
they're getting cheaper all the time.  Then you can use any combination you
like, 100/400, 400/3200, b&w/colour, slide/neg, anything.

If dust and damp isn't a problem you can just switch the one lens between
bodies (to avoid lens duplication), leaving the other body lensless while
you use the preferred film option of the moment.

regards,
Anthony Farr
