You were toast when you got the D300, burned toast with the D3 and Zeiss lenses. Not sure what comes after that, but welcome to another journey down the slippery slopeFrankly I think I just got my 3rd system . Just too hard to ignore. I'm toast

David,LJ,
For the record, I am not promoting the Hy6. My position is that one camera does not do it all for me. I believe you need both leaf shutter and focal plane shutter capabilities, and I happen to prefer the freedom of Sinarback adapters as they let me use multiple cameras and support the Hasselblad 200 series better than Hasselblad. If you do not need AF, then the Hasselblad 203 or 205 will fit the bill for many people, as it can accommodate both leaf and focal plane shutters. If you need AF, then your only other option is to go with the Phase/Mamiya AFD III or ZD camera, and just wait for their announced leaf shutter lenses to appear...but then no waist level finder....
Don't get me wrong, the Hy6 is still a wonderful and extremely capable camera, and like anything else, it takes a little getting used to. But, the flexibility of the Sinarback system is what rocks for me.
Congrats, Guy :clap:Hi guys. Just got a minute but I did decided to get a Mamiya ZD demo instead of the D3. I will use the Nikon D300 for the event and stuff like that work but will slowly build this Mamiya stuff . I stretched the budget here but the price was so good I could not resist. Just a quickie
David K,Guy,
Congrats on your new kit, I am sure you will love it. Looking forward to a whole new set of comparison shots.
