I've been thinking about an upgrade to a K20D, D300 or D700...
Instead of wading into the madness that is high tech, my Anna got me a
Mamiya 645 - looks like the original to me, with a penta-prism finder
- I don't really know a lot about it, but I'm excited to try it out.
It seems to be in great working order. It came with an 80mm f/2.8.
Does anyone have advice or pointers for a novice? I'm going to need a
light meter, I guess, although I *imagine* that I can use my *istDS to
give me an EV. Is there anything I should know about moving to a
6x4.5 format? The viewfinder is beautiful, and makes me think that I
might actually be able to take a manually focused shot. It also makes
me wonder at how dependent I am on technology these days.
Happy Holidays to all.
