Digital BW, The Print

For landscape I recommend the Mamiya 7 II. A little eccentric like a large
leica but fantastic sharp lenses. No good for close up work though but light
weight and silent shutter

  I guess we should tell Dickbo why we chose Rangefinder Med cameras. For
  me,with the Hassie/Bron  it takes minutes to set them up on a tripod and
  level them. Quite often, in landscapes,  the light has changed and the
  shot lost. Rangefinder plus  monopod with tilting head takes just
  seconds. I think all the R-Med cameras have a very good portrait lens. I
  use the 150mm Mamiya for portrait and landscape. Plus, these cameras are
  quite light to carry.

  Now, I can hear my wife dusting off my dinner so I will say goodnight to
  you all.

  Jerry.
