That's a lovely image. That 105mm f/2.4 is a thin DOF lens of creamy wonder. I'm to lazy to do the technical comparison right now, but it HAS to be the equivalent of an f/1.2 on 35mm. The difference is you still get a good center of nice sharpness even wide open with the 6x7. I dont' care for most f/1.2 images that I've seen (or taken) wide open.
On a related note, an Argoflex TLR also followed me home a couple of months ago, and a Kodak Reflex (TLR) was a part of the same haul. Too many cameras, too little time.
