I am a little concerned that this will become the "Former Olympus Users Who
Have Gone To Medium format" list, but...
Someone is interested in the RZ. First, almost all my industrial work is
done in 6x6, and I have used it for personal work as well. When I worked for
the airplane factory, we shot the RB (pre-RZ days) HAND HELD! With Strobe!
If you ever plan on taking your camera off the tripod, don't get the Mamiya.
It's a beast! It is not unreasonable to use the Hasselblad handheld,
however. Before a purchase, wisely consider the use.
Also, if purchasing used, beware RB lenses from the seventies and eighties.
It was my experience that they would produce substantial flare in a
completely dark room.
