Digital has finally gotten there.

Still, there's nothing like pulling off a big Polaroid and transferring it to watercolor paper or opening the can to find your latest crossprocessing experiment went perfectly.

That is true, except when it is your job and your stressing out as to whether the film came out the way you planned

What, you can't afford $30K for a Hasselblad H3D?

You can spend less than $30,000 for some very nice quality, though. The Mamiya 645Zd kit is only $10,000, and actually, you can just about get medium format quality out of the Canon 1Ds MKII, for about $7,000.

Just two possibilities to tempt you.

lol. cheers mike.

we actually got shut down by the police after an hour or so when somebody had reported that the cars we excessively and persistently speeding along the road - a B-road miles from anything but the occasional farm. there were no charges but we were asked to call it a night.

nobody was actually speeding ut the 111R with the lahrini and the honda S1 were making a noise that people might mistake for speed.
