How in the world I manage to pick out the wrong sender amazes me. I did get lucky, however, and appreciate your confirming my own results in comparing my Mamiya 6 vs Canon 6.3mp results of 'prox a year ago. I've, also, had the 'experience' of seeing the Mamiya 7II work of a pro friend and I can't imagine finer images from that format. Scanning of MF is a bit more of an issue and the files can be somewhat cumbersome in PS.
