Bear with me while I restate the painfully obvious. I can't help myself.
This article is interesting on several levels. There is the obvious gee-whiz gadgeteer aspect: you gotta admit, a brand spanking new shiny compact view camera with state-of-the-art lenses and digital back. Too cool for school, and gives me a bad case of photon envy.
More seriously, it illustrates the maxim "use the right tool for the job." What seems like an extravagant expenditure for an amateur like me (I couldn't get this past the Finance Committee--aka wife--without major and unspeakable concessions even if I had the dough! ) makes perfect sense for the pro shooting 2000 frames a year and engaged in a three-year architectural commission for which this system is ideal.
With medium format (film OR digital) seemingly in a slow death spiral, and with MF's traditional turf under encroachment from DSLR's below and LF from above, this seems to make perfect sense.
Michael, I'm guessing that your architectural commission is the Brickworks renovation? If so, I can see why you went this route. Wish you'd given me dibs on the 350 Tele-apo-tessar and that P25!
Looking forward to seeing some of your work product!
