I'm still learning to use it, it's only my second shoot I did with the RB67, but I added the 180 to my kit because I've heard so many good things about it.
I was surprised all the RB67 stuff in general (body, lenses, viewfinders, etc...) is so cheap. Wanted to try MF for a long time already, but refused to look for prices since I thought it would be too expensive and I didn't want to overspend. My whole kit (Pro S body, 127mm, 180mm, WLF, 2 120 backs) set me back approx $500. I still want to replace the 127mm with the 90, but haven't found a buyer for the 127 so far

@ alkanphel: i am not usually drawn to close ups of plants/flowers but those are stunning. the colors and the light are simply beautiful! great shots!
Keeping my first ever camera (Canon New F-1) alive. Lens is breach lock FD 35/2. I had multiple rolls developed, a mix of Fuji and Kodak, but I believe these are Kodak Gold 200. Scanned with Canon CanoScan 9950F. No editing besides removing dust.
Dan, 4x5 is beautiful.
Here is a shot from my very first 120 roll of B&W to develop. It's been sitting in the freezer for 14 months. Decided to let this Tri-X have classic D-76 1:1 and I'm a believer
Are you referring to the Mamiya 200 APO? Not often. It has been sitting in my dry cabinet for quite sometime now. I dread lugging around the 5DMK2 plus all the heavy lenses with me not forgetting the back ache the next day.
I have been using the Olympus EP1 more these days plus all the smaller lenses I have now including the Xpan. Love the Xpan for the panoramic shots.

p.s. great capture of the girl smiling in your first pic above.

Good Morning,
kop.cppua: Nice shots from Bangkok; passed through there (and Laos) a few weeks ago. Have you done any shooting with the 200 APO?
Yes the Mamiya is the one...beautiful glass. I need to get more info on the Xpan, as my pano shoots are done either with a Zeiss Icarette 6x12 (light-quick), or my Linhof with the 6x12 back (heavy-slow-but lens changable).
I'm still going through a few hundred images from the last trip, to cull down to what I will scan and work on in CS6. Just got a new WACOM Cintiq graphics tablet that should help with the workflow.
dswiger: My 1st 4x5 photograph. taken about 10 days ago Congrats!
Got a test roll back from a different lab I wanted to try for 120 C41. Pretty happy with the service and quality overall, much better than the other (and more expensive!) lab I'd tried:
