Re: Which camera to buy

[hotshots@xxxxxxxxx (mark gooby)]

Steve,

Have owned the Fuji GX617 with the 90mm lens for a couple of years now and
love it!  I did the Noblex route (both 35mm and 120) but was disappointed
with the overall quality of workmanship of the cameras.
The Fuji lenses are very, very sharp and you can hand hold it at a
resonable shutter speed with no problem.

As this is a very expensive piece of gear, you might want to rent one first
to check out the features before you plop down 5K.  You might think twice
about dumping it in a backpack...it is a bit too big and fragile for that
sort of transport.  Good Luck!
