Already putting any spare cash I can aside for 40 Mpixel goodness later this
year - and some of the older 2nd hand glass out there for the 645II film
cameras that I'll be able to use ..... can't wait!!

Was going to arrange a demo and maybe hire a Phase One system, but am now
pretty well sold on the 645D and have lost interest in either a full Phase
One system or going with an older Mam' with a Phase One or Leaf Back (that
and I HATE the Capture One software you need to use).
