I was also lusting after one for a while but came to the conclusion that a
view camera might be better for this type of photography. You should end up
paying about the same but the view camera will be more versatile. For less
than $1000 you could get a Calumet Cadel, 65 or 90 S. Angulon, bag bellows
and a couple of film holders and you'd be all set. You could also get a
reducing back for 6x9 and you'd have a negative you could easily print with
most enlargers.
PS. How much were you thinking of paying?
