Response to talk me into or out of this...

Every camera system has it's pros and cons. The Pentax 67II is everything I thought it would be, large transparencies and negatives, handles like a large 35mm body, choice of using 120 or 220 film, and a couple of leaf shutter lenses that will allow a flash sync of up to 1/500. On the downside, a bit slower than motor driven 35mm bodies, flash sync of 1/30 on focal plane lenses, 90% viewing screen, and a dedicated body is recommended for Polaroid back. If you want something faster, you might want to look at the Contax 645, Mamiya 645Pro or AF 645, or go back to 35mm. You can expect a slower process as you go to a larger format, but the larger images are well worth the trade off. Tony
