Yes, MF is an outstanding medium. Outstandingly expensive and heavy, as well
as making really nice pictures. You have to work slower, and there ain't any
really good TTL metering like in an OM-4, at least in affordable MF gear.
Probably the latest and greatest Contax and Mamiya have really good TTL
metering.....but get a second mortgage on your house to go there....
