 Well...price, for one thing.

Not true.  Mamiya RZ Pro kit's on evilbay are floating below $1500.  That's
cheaper than a N*kon F* and one or two lenses..  So I don't think that is
true.  Maybe the preception of price...


And a brand new Mamiya 645E kit with normal lens which is somewhat simplified(non interchangeable eye level viewer) but takes the pro lenses is $1399 at B&H. Cheaper than a new OM4T with 50/1.2 by several hundred dollars.
