The plain fact is that even a medium prices reasonable quality medium format camera like a Yashicamat in terms of producing photo- technical quality can beat the pants off any 35mm camera even a Leica.I would rather have a Hasselblad.
Ha ha... perhaps that's true but show me any Aston Martin that can compete with any Dodge Viper or Ford GT.
For a while there Lotus Elise's had Toyota engines in them. At least the motors were reliable.
Compete with? That's insulting. The A-M was a hand made, limited production masterpiece with incredible craftsmanship and attention to detail, not to mention the Connoly hide seats, wool carpet, and walnut burl dash. The A-M V8 was docile in traffic and could hit 160mph on the open road in the early 70s.
While a Viper might be faster, in every other way it's a POS by comparison.
I'm sorry, sir. I never intended to hurt your feelings.

This thread is like compost.
True enough! Consistent with Detroit's "philosophy," both the Ford and the Viper have: 1). More horsepower; and, 2). more cup-holders.
Precisely... and darned fine cup holders they are too. At least Dodge and Ford understand the logic and necessity of putting one's martini down and steering with both hands.
Martinis?!?!?! I thought that folks who drove Dodges and Fords drank domestic beer!And from a can...
Yeah, but the floor mats were really dangerous.
On the other hand GM provides an ignition system that kills its owners.
Hey...lay off my Ford Pinto. That was just a myth. My son has run into lots of things with it and it hasn't exploded yet.
For that feature to work, the Pinto needs to be rear ended.

Pioneer,
I see you never used something like apo-macro-elamarit from tripod (or other of the same quality) with say pan-f or agfapan25 and developed it in Agfa rodinal. With f6 or r-leica you use all 35 mm film size, you nearly always crop 6x7... And large format lenses on 6x7 are far from best leica/zeiss 35 mm lenses. It is not only film size, it crop, lens, filter (leica uv filter is c.$400 as I remeber), film/developer "resolving power" (acutance), ..
And I use all of them ...
