I have interest in the P25 plus and the P30 Plus. I shoot everything so need one size fits all , although i know better than to think like that but get daddy home safely. LOL

I'm thinking a video camera might come in handy on this workshopDare I say it:
What will Guy's MF kit consist of at the start of the San Juan Workshop?
What will Guy's MF kit consist of at the end of the San Juan Workshop?
. . . this could prove to be more fun than the reported fifty bars in old San Juan
Thanks Don was hoping you would chime in. Lance mentioned you today to me about shooting the P30 plus. Sounds really good from you comments. thanks again GuyGotta remember to thank Chris for the plug…
Okay now the facts…
I’ve been shooting landscape with a Mamiya 645 AFD II Phase P30+ combo for better part of a year now. I did a shoot in the South Rim of the Grand Canyon December last year and used only the 28mm lens. I also went to Carmel and Big Sur February of this year and used the 28. I had absolutely no problems whatsoever with the 28mm and the P30+….none nada nope. Want samples? Go to our website, Iron Creek Photography and look at the “Landscape” gallery you’ll see Pfeiffer Beach (28mm 4sec shot) and a couple of the South Rim shots.
I’ve used the 28, 35, 75-150, 210(not as much) 300 and a Hartblei 45 Super Rotator all with great results. I used the Hartblei in Sequoia National Park and was surprised at the quality of the images.
Just a mindless plug for both Capture Integration and myself: the Miami office used several images of ours in their last workshop; I don’t know if Lance is planning to use them again but they might have them available to anyone attending the next workshop.
We leave for Alaska (driving there) in about a week, I’ll be visiting the site whenever I get internet access so please don’t be put off if I fail to answer or “show up” for a couple days at a time, we should be back here July/August timeframe.
Hope this answers the question of whether or not a P30+ can do landscape photography ‘cause it sure can. BTW, the lens that just about lives on my camera is the 28mm followed by the 75-150.
Cheers
