Kirk, 

Didn't get your picture via the list but I am sure I can work more on getting 
rid of the color cast myself.  Will try to scan it again.

Cost aside, for me it comes down which camera I prefer to use for this type of 
image. The Rolleiflex wins easily.  I like the waistlevel viewing and the 
square format for composing (the main reason I got rid of the otherwise superb 
Contax 645).  

OTOH, the Canon 60D with 15-85mm and 70-300 mm L IS zooms won easily for 
interior pictures of plants and animals in the Montreal, Biodome, the day 
before.
