When I'm shooting a rapid sequence of various shots, I sometimes use my 6x7 as though it were a 6x6, shooting both horizontals and verticals with the camera in the horizontal position. Perhaps this is the result of having used a 6x6 for many years. In any case, I'm pleased that I now have the option of using the camera as a 6x6 or as a 6x7. Paul
