modern fast 35mm film would be smaller, lighter, faster, and produce
a better image.

Not necessarily - it was medium format and had a rather good lens I believe
- basically, a compact body built around a very special lens.

Are you serious? You think the medium format camera was smaller,
lighter, faster than an OM F1.2? You don't think high technology35mm
film with stacked crystal technology and uniform thickness can
capture with less light what was captured by an emulsion spread by
hand on a glass plate? You don't think you could improve on the
example images or even most medium format images from the 20's with
an APS camera? Sorry, but it is hard for me to believe someone could
have such a technological marvel as a modern camera and not
appreciate it for what it is.
