Well, i dont understand that at all because I can definetly see a big
difference
from my hassleblad to my large format equipment. Just make a nice set of
16x20 prints from each neg.

Before you rush out and buy LF equipment, be advised that you might not be
able to tell the difference in the print. My Hasselblad shots are just as
sharp and clear as my LF shots. There is something to be said about
Hasselblad and Carl Zeiss quality. Having said that, the quality difference
from 35mm to MF is HUGE, but most anticipations of repeating this experience
when going to LF are disappointed. You need to get bigger than 16x20 in the
print to see the difference.
The biggest benefit of LF to me is the ability to adjust front and rear
standards. Also, each format has its advantages. Nothing is as fast as 35mm
(reportage and action). Nothing is as versatile and precise as MF (model and
fashion and a good compromise for everything). Nothing is as flexible as LF
(landscape and art). Comparing one against another is tough and possibly
unfair.
