About 5 years ago I was in this position and made myself crazy.  By nature
I'm a hardware "junkie" so I have to compare specs, stare at the color
glossy brochures, make lists, then start again.

For myself I chose the 67 system.  I use it for landscapes, macro, still
life, and portraiture.  I use mostly color slide and B&W films. With color I
have made 20X24 prints that are razor sharp and with B&W 11X14 prints are
easy and the occasional 16X20 is a keeper.  My style of shooting does not
need/benefit from AF of the 645 system and 6X6 gets cropped down to 645.

If you need/want AF, need to have faster flash sync speed, or even prefer
handholding go with the 645.

Take care,
Arden Sampsel
