    End of road for MF/LF...

    That is why I recommend a Porroflex for the Mamiya Cxx and why I always use a PME prism on my Hasselblad 503 CX. The left-right reversal is a PITA.

    Nikon autofocus (conspiracy) theory

    One cannot base any conclusions on photographs that were not taken in a scientific standardize method. In all these decades, how come no articles are published in any photographic magazines, photographic journals, or photographic internet websites? Since you have dug in your heels and have...

Even the Hasselblad bodies were...

    Freestyle is an excellent company.

    I do not like shipping peanuts either. I cannot get the shell off them and I find that they lack the crunchiness of roasted peanuts. I tried roasting them in my oven, but they just turned into a sticky mess! :mad: If I pour them the trash can, a lot of them end up on the floor.

    Freestyle is an excellent company.

    I buy from them when it is appropriate, but sometimes I can get it cheaper from Adorama and save almost 10% sales tax.

    Best light meter option for low light and cold weather

    My Gossen Luna Pro SBC ate 9 volt batteries so I carefully removed the battery after each time I took it out. I was talking about keeping the light meter in the pocket.

    Best light meter option for low light and cold weather

    There are many good recommendation already listed. I strongly suggest that you keep the light meter warm in your clothes in between photographs. That will help both the battery and the response [it will respond more quickly].

    Portra 400 blah

    120 slides are beautiful, but to really enjoy them one should mount them in glass which allows cropping when needed but also preserves the original slide with better protection and better projection than cardboard mounts.

    are you staying on course and if not, do you care ?

    I have projects that I dive into that are in photography or out, and generally I stay on course until I complete the goal. Sometimes I set a project aside and come back later.

    Landscapes with medium format

    It depend which camera backpack I use. One overseas trips I will carry a few lenses, while on a trip by car I may carry a large camera back pack and pick out one of many lenses at a place I stop.

    Decisive moment

    Cropping or lack there of has nothing to do with the decisive moment. The moment is captured in the film or in the image area or it is not. Cropping will not in itself make a moment magic.
