both are great. the mamiya press has a lot more options of lenses with fast glass...

yeah, they may be listed for $400, but they don't sell for that, and they don't include the 110 2.8 lens...i still think that is a good deal for an rz, pro ii or not...

2008.

the love of photography kept me going.

because it's my book, and i did what i wanted in it. want to see sunny 16 stuff? google that shiz.

its magenta, and contrasty. oh, and probably going to be expensive. it is horrible in 35mm in my opinion (grainy). and hard to find as well, it is discontinued. in 120 it was pretty fine grain...but good luck finding any, and if you do, expect to pay a premium.

it is available at barnes and nobles and fingers crossed soon enough urban outfitters. and you can go check out b&n and see how different it is. because it is is a lot different :). but you can see for yourself.

ok, so, just poking around the internet. from this test:

i see the : 25 (i guessed at the 29, thought it was 26) and I see the 56. the other ones, NOTHING.

and nothing else...

it is crazy, but sadly, very true. i am color blind. i first found out while i was 10 while visiting the smithsonian in dc. my cousin laughed at me because i could not see certain things on cards....

Yeah no auto here...not really sure how I "see" color but I can. And it took a while to see it...

Don't have either so google is your best friend, sorry

I triple majored and got a Japanese, Asian studies, and a bfa in photography

I'd get the RZ. It's the best bang for your buck and lenses are crazy cheap. The contax is super expensive...

both

oh, that is too hard.

but my favorite movie right now is the new zealand movie "Boy"

This is completely subjective. There are a million ways to meter. For me it is bulb retracted always.
