I believe he does quite a bit of photography "like this". When I was
thinking of getting a MF camera I think it was his comments on the
Pentax67 that caused me to get a Mamiya7. What I recall was that he was
unhappy with the performance of a 600mm monster Pentax lens, switched to
a smaller newer ED 300(?) and was much happier. That lens cost about $3k
or $4. I believe he likes to take landscape photos using pretty long
telephotos, mirror lockup on the P67, firmly mounted on a sturdy tripod.
The weight and $$$ pointed me away from it. Being able to still carry a
few Zuikos is a necessity!

In the article he says "...roof of a parking garage overlooking
downtown Toronto. This is a favourite testing site of mine...". OK so
how much of his real photography is taking pictures like this?
