Absolutely not. I use my 6x7 hand held more often than not. It is no more difficult to obtain sharp images at fast shutter speeds, such as 1/250, than it is with a 35 mm. And using mirror lock up, one can produce sharp images even at 1/30. Hand held. Aaron is the master of hand held mirror lock up shooting, but I've learned to do it as well. It's easier than you might think. > > More in general, what do YOU see as strong points for the 67 versus 645 for > landscape/nature ? Bigger negative. Big is beautiful.

True, but the step from 645 to 67 is substantial. Paul Stenquist > > Pentax-Discuss Mail List. To unsubscribe, > go to http://www.pdml.net and follow the directions.
