Thank you everyone, especially Doug for all the fantastic and thoughtful advise. I ordered an RM3Di, 32HR, 60XL, factum, and a bunch of bits last week from my dealer in Toronto, B3K. Will likely add the 120N.
My dealer has always been great, and the advise in the forum here just completed the experience. Doug, especially admire your professionalism and dedication to your craft knowing full well that the sale would likely go local in Toronto....a very rare breed these days. BTW, saw your video from NYC a couple weeks ago, and was just floored -- based on the wise and tempered advise you provide on this forum, I expected a lot more grey
I was having a love/hate relationship with my DF and thought it would all go if I went the tech cam route, especially now that I use the D800E for anything casual, but I just love SK LS glass so will keep it for now. For context, 95% of what I shoot on the DF/IQ180 is landscapes.
Looking forward to getting my hands on the little beast in a couple of weeks and posting progress.
There are also a couple of new bits like the eModule Cloud(?), Rotamount and grip extension from Arca that I can report on once I get everything in my hands.
Thanks again! Of course, Dante has once again danced on my wallet...
