Oh boy.

Did you miss the whole medFo thread that Bruce started a week or 2 ago? I would check 
the archives, or maybe see if Bruce saved a few of the better posts.

In a nutshell,

- Are you sure you want a Pentax?
- Do you need the extra real estate on the 6x7 neg?
- Do you want AF?
- Do you want motor drive?
- Have you tried them both out?

I have a 645n and love it. I'd probably love a 67 as well, but I doubt if I'd drag it 
around as much as I do the 645.

Get the one you like.
