Christine, the Mx is very close to a DSLR killer - when it comes to size and viewfinder. Even the full format DSLRs have problems matching the Mx finder, due to light losses in the mirror to allow for AF and fancy metering. True, a modern focusing screen can shine here, but the moment you give the same upgrade the Mx the results from the oldie shoud improve too...
Never got a neutral copy from those c41 b&w films unless I sent them to b&w lab for printing, but the quick return from a nearby minilab got me out of trouble more than once - getting me an early ok from a client so I would move to the next studio setup, prints to be delivered later in proper. Very interesting pic! You got me thinking about carriyng the Mx more often. But that also means lab developing, film scanning... :-/ OTOH, every pic is available for a second high res scanning if I manage to catch anything of interest... next week I'll give it a try.
