It's a pity about your experience with the reliability of MFD systems.What became extremely frustrating for me, was the initial investment of MFD, and its reliability.
The D800 has been a fantastic camera so far .....
Well, I imagine that the mindset that is necessary for the slowed down, contemplative nature of Medium Format has a civilizing influence, or uncovers the underlying benign and tolerant nature of those individuals who develop interest or addiction in the area....I'm just amazed how civil this thread has been ...
I think John has received respect, look how many people gave their truly honest answers. As I am sure John and all of us see, there are as many answers as there are people. Unfortunately it is not a simple Math problem, there are "Horses for Courses" but also it is subjective and based on perceived need and other influences.Considering new members join all the time, you'd think John would get a little respect. How is he to know that this has been discussed?
John, your question is valid, but when you start to peel away the layers here, some answers might not be as objective as you'd think.
Think about it, this is a photography forum where questions and answers should mingle freely without repercussions for offending a brand or format. At the core of these disgruntled replies, might be the initial investment to MFD or why would it matter?
If you still like it then it seems logical to keep it..
I am now more debating with myself if I really still need a Leica M (which is a system I have used and liked for many years)
