And in the Theatre. I can usually steady it well enough
at 1/30s or 1/60s that I see no ill effects of the mirror
vibrations. On a tripod, though, I tend to *always* use
MLU even at the faster shutter speeds. You're right, the
645n is much easier to use handheld, but the 67II feels
much nicer than any hassy, mamiya, or bronica that
I have used. And in the studio, the 1/30s shutter sync
is no problem, using strobes of a 1/500s flash duration.
And I LOOOOVE that big neg..... :-)
Cheers!
