Hello Guys and Galls,
I'm about to put my feet wet in DB but never used them.
Apart from the obvious choices of Pentax 645D and Leica S2, with are weather sealed, what is the thing with Phase backs for instance ?
I've been searching non stop on the internet and found a few horror stories that a couple of water splashes ( rain that pours all the sudden and so on ) killed the backs in less than no time.
since I take pictures outdoors and some times in less than ideal conditions, should I be worried ? should I move away from a DB and find an integrated solution ? ie 645D ? I use a non weatherproof camera that I've used and well, abused a bit in quite some harsh environoment and had moderate cara ( well trying not to put the camera on a waterfall for example, that kinda care. if it light rains, kept always shooting )
thanks all for your help in advance
ps : yes Leica S2 would be a killer but not a option due to budget ( circa 11k usd )
