I've been shooting some MF for 25 years or so, but I recently got much heavier into it with the purchase of a Pentax 6x7. In part because it's a new toy, and in part because it's much easier to work with than the TLRs I used in the past. I was just starting to feel guilty about neglecting my 35mm cameras, but I'm sure I'll go back to them. The 6x7 is great for a lot of things, but I can't afford any really long lenses (or as wide a range of lenses as I enjoy in 35mm, and it is, of course, quite a load. iI's hard to be inconspicuous with a camera that's the size of a bowling ball. However, it is great for portraits. I've shot a few already, and I intend to shoot many more. Paul
