Justin I had borrowed both (6 & 7), but in the end, I went for the Mamiya 6. The lenses for both cameras are out of this world. I measured a 50% increase in resolution in the Mamiya lenses over the Hasselblad lenses!!! I prefer the 6 over the 7 for several reasons. It¹s smaller (much smaller than the 7), it makes a size negative that fits into neg files without compromises, and I think it¹s better made than the 7 (IMHO). Used prices are still quite reasonable if you compare to original retail. I¹m sure you¹ll be happy with either one, though. Regards Ralph W.
