I used this camera (on a tripod) for a family group shot. After the sitting, in addition to the group shot, the dad asked for individual 8x10" head shots of his children. All I could do was crop each child from the group shot. I used HP5+ and the crisp quality delivered by the fujinon lens was amazing considering the degree of enlargement necessary. Everyone was happy with the results.
A Plaubel Makina as taken over the duties of medium format rangefinder in my stable. Selling this fuji to buy another fuji camera, a model I cannot mention here.
y'all are funny. I'd like to have the medium format but can't afford it now, nor the unmentionable camera which I also would really enjoy...Good luck with the sale. Bigger neg's are better all things being equal. Curiosity, what did you use for the developer for the HP5+ mega enlargement?. I've been pleased with D-76 on 35mm but I'm hardly an expert in these things (two rolls so far...)

D-76 is a fine choice for developer. I used it exclusively for years. If you like the enlargements from your 35 mm negs, you ought to see what 6x9 and 4x5 look like.
Sorry, didn't mean to hijack the thread. These Fuji's are stellar cameras.
