I agree with Rich's basic premise - thought needs to go into how new forums are launched. When type and product overlap (which is often!), which one wins out?
RFF has a legacy of being a useful teaching tool and community. In time, when newbies are searching through old posts looking to learn, something valuable might be missed if they are in the wrong forum. Granted, a site search might be better, but might not always be practical.
I guess we'll see how it shakes out...

I'd like to add my "vote" to the "too many forum" topic. It doesn't serve any purpose BUT to make it hard to find where to post, and also having quite a number of forums that will have a post every 6 months.
How many of us shoot a large format rangefinder ? Why not have a forum called "Even Bigger" in the Medium format section and be done with it ?
Buze, from the "Manual Focus forum" and all of it's ... 6 forums

I fear that we'll have another forum split in the works. The Contax froum where we discussed Zeiss and Kyocera Contax cameras is now named Zeiss Contax
