Thanks for the supportive comment, Doug!
Besides, I usually like to give large optional expenditures due consideration!

Slower pace, huh Doug...dkirchge said:Fits right in with the slower pace of MF photography
I've also heard people refer to the slower pace of manual-focus 35mm rangefinder work; maybe it comes out about the same pace, in contrast to a quicker pace in digital/motorized/AF/zoom photography. The Bronica is pretty fast-working, with both Aperture-priority auto and Program Auto in addition to full manual exposure. Manual wind and focus of course, but the Program AE probably makes it faster than a Leica M6, with an equally crisp rangefinder. About the same speed on metered-manual I expect. Seems adequately quick to me!

Doug K. was referring to the slow pace of my decision making. That's what fits in with the slower pace of medium format.
Actually, I'm really stalling for time so that I can think up a good story to tell my wife.

My Bronica RF645, along with the 45mm and 65mm lenses, should arrive today. I'll run some Fuji Astia through this weekend and see what I get!

Would like to see that camera, Robert. Any chance of you bringing it to the get together in a couple of weeks?

Well, it's here. Wow! Nice build quality and very compact for MF! But there is a small problem - the reangefinder verticle allignment is off, so I need to ship it out, along with my 100mm lens to be certain that it focuses accurately.
I'll bring it along on Oct 14, Peter, if it's back by then. Otherwise, we'll have to meet for another beer!

Too bad Robert! Hope it comes back soon...

These things happen. Relatively minor, so I expect that I'll have it back soon.
