All good points, which is why I went for an old multi-shot back, and am looking for more. One point though is at these sizes and working distances light is not an issue, I use a Bron Cumulight as my main light with one pack, a Primo which is only 1600w and use it mostly below half power. This is supplemented by two or three Bron minipulses which are only 300w eack, once again on half or below, at f32. The closer you have the lights, the less fall off you get.
Kind regards'

So you dont feel diffraction is an issue at f32 ?
This is a question not an accusation
(I assume you chose MS before the 1ds3)
I would however in terms of the OPs needs being studio and location think that DSLR convienience may outweigh multishot quality gains while still offering high pixel density rather than chipsize to gain MP
I dont know about the live ivew on the 1ds3 or if it even has it but the live view in 'tripod mode' onthe D3 (which I have just got) is fantastic allowing for live focus confirmation at big zooms
I cannot emphasise how well this would work on a view camera and how much shooting time it would same me compared to the poorly aligned GG I currenlty use
And of course 'time is money' is part of any economic equation
