GAS attack: I bought a Mamiya 7ii ... now having second thoughts!

I have to agree with previous posters; the RZ is a brilliant camera system, well thought out and pretty much idiot proof, albeit heavy- but it is a studio camera first and foremost. Not the best choice for hand-held work. And I am saving my pennies for a 7ii. When they (Mamiya 7) first came out, I was telling my photographer friends that this is the hottest thing down the pike in years- I wasn't wrong!

Still awaiting the package from USPS with the 7ii. As consolation I took my Kiev 60 for a walk last night and took some nature shots. I know it will seem like a toy in comparison...
