LensAuthority had one in EX condition at a great price this week so I took the plunge.
I'm still figuring out my glass situation. Is the 32-64 as good as they say?! I can see 32-64 + Canon 100-400L or 70-200L being a pretty hard to beat landscape kit. I don't shoot wider than 24 FF equivalent all that often.
Over at the DPReview medium format thread (a great resource FYI), people have demonstrated lots of field curvature with the 32-64. Whether or not that's a bug or a feature is up to you, but it's something you'll have to deal with.

Exactly right. You confirm my point. Thank you VERY much. The demand for the camera was so low, prices had to be lowered. That was my point right from the beginning. Flew right over your head I'm afraid.
You agree with me completely despite your feeble attempt at proving me wrong.
Sweeeet.
Uh, did you read what I wrote and what others have wrote. You can't even seem to understand the very simple things people have written here. Lowering prices could be used to increase demand as an attempt to increase market share. Lower prices do not automatically indicate lower demand. If you believe that they do, then you need to take a basic economics course, because you do not understand basic principles. That you did not even understand how my point refuted what you were saying (and contend that it actually supports your errant reasoning) is a dramatic demonstration of the Dunning/Krueger effect in which people understand so little about a topic that they don't even understand when they have said something that is clearly wrong. You clearly don't even have enough knowledge of economics to know that you are wrong and that is why I suggest you need an economics course. Anyone who has even learned 60% of what is taught in such a course would know what you are saying is wrong.

Thanks, I'll check it out! For me the primary use case would be f/8-f/11 landscapes off a tripod. I have Canon FF system for everything else. I have the Techart Adapter arriving today so my hope is that some of my better Canon glass could fill out the range (Zeiss 135 APO, 16-35 f/4L, etc.).

I like my 32-64, probably one of the best zooms. Not sure what the problem is. I just wish it was faster aperture wise. Or had some more range on longer side.

I don't think it's a "problem" so much as a lens characteristic that sometimes catches people by surprise. It's a lens that can show strong field curvature, so people shooting distant subjects that are parallel to the sensor plane may notice soft corners. A different approach to focusing may be needed in some circumstances.

Please continue to believe in your nonsense if it makes you feel better. I know far more economics than you will EVER know.
