An interesting concept.
I've tended to use Medium for anything
"serious", but still film for 35mm snapshots, etc.
My reasoning is, if it's worth pressing the button
for, it's probably worth keeping.
Medium Format is used for anniversaries and other
memorable gatherings where the history of the event
is desirable.  That takes detail.
(Right now my father-in-law, pro photographer, is partly engaged in the preservation 
of very old family shots.  Trying to preserve even the detail of a face can be a lot 
of work.  Better to have extra detail now than losing what little is there later.)

I wouldn't drop 35mm.  Maybe reduce its usage.
My MF work was with the so-convenient Fuji FA645.
A wonderful little tool.

Hope these thoughts are useful.

Subject: Anyone shoot MF exclusively? 

Hi all, 

I'm in the process of searching for a MF camera and was wondering if anyone 
here shoots MF exclusively?  Trying to decide if I should ditch my ZX-5n, 
upgrade my digital olympus for snapshots and go MF for everything else.  I'm 
really wanting to get into portrait photography (mainly children) and it 
really seems like MF is the way to go. 

Any opinions? 

Thanks, 

Delano
