WELCOME!
Boy I had to stop and re-read the eqpt you are using. Must say I am ignorant of that eqpt.
But darn spectacular compositions here! I too am venturing into the MF arena!
Again SUPER images all!

Thanks Dan! I am new to Phase One but like it quite a bit over my old canon 5dmarkiv. The size and weight are the main downside but it makes up for it in image quality. I like that I can use my digital back on my rz67 pro ii as well (with adapter) and on a cambo actus someday when I find a deal on a used one lol.
Previously I only knew about Hasselblad MF stuff. I considered the Fuji 100mp mf stuff too after research but it seemed harder to find used gear and a sufficiently low price. My initial kit (xf w/hap-2, iq3 100mp back, 3 lenses, travel pelican case and accessories) was under 14,000 with tax etc that would have maybe landed me a body and one lens with the Hass or Fuji in the latest models. I’d love to try the X2C 100 and the gfx 100 ii but first I need to win the lotto for that. Not really something I can demo easily as my area is low on dealers that would have it in stock.

Luckily I had a mentor that decided on Leica and sold me his Fuji100sii and a few lenses at a price I could not refuse!
The Fuji has a huge learning curve for me. I am not a "bells and whistles" type of guy. This has that and more. All I want is the "basics". But I will endure those "bells and whistles". The hmpx, MF sensor, mirrorless is what sold me.
Good luck! It shows here very well!

I get that about the bells and whistles. I bought a Fujifilm X100VI off an estate sale to flip. Had about 20 shutter accusations on it total. I used it for a weekend trip alongside my P1. I found the menu to be super annoying on the fujifilm. I turned off just about everything other than basic standard stuff. The amount of stuff you can do is cool in theory. But I can see it taking a while to figure out the work flow for various things and getting your settings dialed in feels like a lot of work. I sold it after my trip and netted $350 in profit.
