Your Velvia photos are just spectacular!
Thank you so much! I miss it! If they still made 4x5 Quickload (Fuji) or Readyload (Kodak) I would likely dive back in to large format. But I am toying with getting a used Pentax 67II or 645NII which I used to shoot, and satisfying my Velvia craving more conveniently with medium format.
I too miss the Fujifilm 4x5 instant peel apart film, sigh..
I still don't believe they don't offer confirmed purchases of limited runs.

After replacing the bellows and fixing (cleaning) the shutter on my first Isolette II, I picked up another one with the coveted Solinar for a decent price on eBay. The shutter needed cleaning and I had to un-freeze the focusing, but the original bellows is still good. These are from my first roll through it.
