Mamiya & 50mm F4 & a print of
SimonSawSunlight - that is a great photo you took with the 50mm f/4 lens! Especially the way you caught the kid in sun against the shadow.

My 6x9 rangefinders. I've used the Mamiya Universal for years. The Kodak Medalist II arrived yesterday. I kept reading how big and heavy the Medalist was. Compared to the Universal it is but a mere trifle. Both cameras are 6x9 with 100mm/3.5 lenses. The Medalist is now in a box ready to go to Ken Ruth for a CLA and conversion to 120. What a sweet camera!
Most cameras are a trifle compared to the Unversal/Press 23, but wide straps help. It got to where last year I couldn't even think about using it with the back problems I was having. That is part of what got me interested in 9x12. Thankfully my back has improved a good bit. What other lenses do you have for it?

oftheherd - I have a 50mm f/6.3 mounted on a flat topped Super 23. (It used to be a rangefinder.) I also have the 65mm f/6.3 and the 127mm f/4.7 for use with Polaroid backs.

I have read that this camera has been nicknamed 'Texas Leica'.
Got it last week at a E-bay auction. Didn't have any time yet to give it a spin. But sure as h**l gonna try soon!
As I wrote on my blog, it's the plan to use it for (street)potraits, and some other special projects.

My Hasselblad Eater. Its Heliar lens blows my Hassy 80 2.8 Planar away in IQ. Darn sight lighter too!

I also have the 50mm and the 65mm(not currently working), the 100mm of course, the 150mm and the 250mm f/5. The latter is heavier than the camera. I also have a couple of other bodies. I have thought about converting one by removing the RF, but don't really feel that ambitious. I really like the system. I also have the extention tubes and a couple different types of ground glass screens, including the one that takes the cut film holders, of which I have about 10. I haven't used them in a very long time though.

According to this seller ( http://cgi.ebay.com/Kodak-Super-Six...tem&pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item53e235ff87 ), only 700 ever made. So, he is selling it cheap.
