I'm generally happy with what I have, but I may treat myself to an Alpa 12TC.

I think the main thing would be to get into 4x5, and pay someone to handle the film loading and processing. He/she would give me loaded film holder, with a film of my choice it them. I would return the used holder to him/her, he would have them processed/scanning/printed at great/experienced lab, and return it all to me.

My main expense would be travel though.

Money is no object, it's my lack of ability

One more Hasselblad 500 and a backup set of the lenses I already have.
One more Leica M, with a backup set of lenses.
That's it.

If money was no object , I would go to philosophy and art history , optics , glass blowing schools in Italy and Germany. I would spend my money in to them and see what happens to my photographs 15 years later.

+1. I already have more material possessions than anyone realistically needs. I, too, would opt for the education route: pursuing further studies in philosophy, art history, and literature would be my dream. And, like you, Sir, I would like to see where these avenues took my photography...

At first i didn't understand you meant ladies in a figurative manner.

Did I? Hmmm, I dunno about figurative... They all have Cytherean figures, that's for sure--we're talking 4 x F2 here: great genes, the perfect phenotype; curves to die for and muscle tone to make Masha Sharapova green... Not that any of them ever needed a bubbly CLA in those past four decades, it would merely be a sign of my awe and admiration. (Likely to be spurned, I know; "Just give us something to shoot," they'd say.)

Oi, each much more a lady than I will ever be a gentleman!

I'm really fascinated by that Leica S2 digital. Have not seen any examples of pictures, though.

I couldn't find the site that had some nice some example photos but they were very nice. What you would expect from Leica but at ~20K$ sign!
