I do own a bunch of Pentax 35mm gear, shoot B&W almost exclusively, (no I won't sell it you vultures <G>) but I find myself shooting almost exclusively with my 6x7 gear. Those huge negatives just do something for me, I just had a 50x60 print done and you can see the individual strands of the person's hair that is sitting on a bench in the photo, his head is about 2cm across in the print, amazing (handheld at 125, I think the 6x7 shutter vibration complaints are bogus). Had I to do it over, I would have purchased one 35mm with a couple of lenses then bought all 6x7 gear (for my style of shooting anyway)... Norm
