I think this is a really interesting discussion - very relevant to my own circumstances.
I suspect the point raised that many pros are still using old view camera equipment and not upgrading may have something to do with the current state of play - despite a great deal of technical sophistication in several key areas the field still does not seem to have given birth to a practical, fully mature system. This is certainly the case with me: I've tried a few MFDB/tech camera set-ups and have been impressed, but not to such an extent that I am prepared to pay the shocking price, as I'm not a full-time pro. So I'm still using a Linhof Technikardan S23 with roll film and a Nikon 9000 ED scanner. It's hardly cutting edge, but I know how to use it all, and within its limits (which are not actually that bad at all) the system gives good results.
The new small-format tech cams are definitely interesting (Universalis is very appealing), but there are a few things I'd like to see before I commit to laying out that kind of money (and MFDB prices are still pretty frightening):
I'd want to be convinced of a good back format fitting with a range of proper view-camera type lenses. The actual format size is immaterial, whether it's MFDB or FF - the point is the performance to price ratio. I do appreciate the use of existing MF lenses with small format cameras, but I'd want the full view camera lens experience - including the wide angle of incidence against the sensor. The new A7rII type sensor may help here, but I have not seen it very well tested in this regard yet.
CMOS with compact live view (not tethering) is very interesting indeed - I think this is a huge step towards maturity of the products. Still only a few options, but we are definitely getting close, and the future looks good.
The loss of Copal-type shutters for view camera lenses is a worry (I do like leaf shutters, although I can work with focal plane types if necessary). So far all the electronic alternatives seem to need a chunky great control box on a wire - fine in the studio, but I work exclusively in the field. A new solution is required.
The need to shoot LCC exposures is a real deal-breaker for me. I can't see anything suiting my purposes until a digital view camera arrives which records the back-lens relationship electronically in the exposure data for compensation using the raw developer software (which may need to be proprietary). That will, I suspect, be even more expensive than current top-end MFDB solutions, but it's got to be the way forward. It will have to be frighteningly accurate for small formats, so maybe this is where MFDBs will continue to score?
Until something which meets these concerns comes along I, and I suspect a fair few others, will carry on as we are with our obsolete kit, as, in truth, it has actually not yet been rendered obsolete at all. I'm just hoping there will continue to be a good range of films available in the mean time...
