Now now.

1) Dave is not a list member.  He was intimidated by the volume of mail.

2) Dave was thinking of medium format, but was going to get one of those 
Yashicamat things that are everywhere.  I did my best to convince him 
that the 6x7 from Pentax was the perfect camera for him, but to no 
avail.  But when he saw the 645n and its goofy technology, like 
auto-focus and data imprinting, he was tempted to join the Pentax medium 
format world.  I figured with this, I could convince him to buy a few 
6x7 lenses and that adaptor, and then when he saw how good the 67 lenses 
are and how inexpensive, he'd just HAVE to buy a 67 body.

It's all a plan.
