what the gently caress posted:I guess that's my answer. Portability/weight is not something I'm particularly fussed about at this stage. More durability and stability. Sort of getting ping-ponged around looking for good affordable-ish tripod solutions for about 10-11 (22lbs) kg worth of camera. The answer is always: http://www.bythom.com/support.htm

I did see one of these for sale in an antiques shop near here. But I don't want it for studio use. Outdoors.

I have a distributor for Vanguard Tripods near me that clears out their stock of return/scratch-n-dent/B-stock/etc tripods every summer, including some beefy lightweight tripods rated to 20+ lbs. Like probably $100 or so. Want me to keep an eye open and post some?

The GSW690iii is pretty fun. Only problem is that it just has a T mode and not B, so doing long exposures is going to be a pain in the rear end... Converge by Paul Frederiksen, on Flickr

Yup you gotta very quickly cover the lens with the cap and then advance the film lever, which closes the shutter.

Something to do with the film? Development? Just the overcast and dark environment in which they were taken? (Probably that.) Whatever it is, I'm loving the colors in some of this roll. Untitled by Drew Davis, on Flickr

Going to Tokyo and Beijing in a couple weeks. I'd like to bring a camera, but I don't think I want to lug my P67, or the Mamiya RZ67 I just borrowed from a friend. I just caught up on this thread after about six months of totally avoiding all things photography and now I'm tempted to buy a GW690II for the trip. Can anyone speak to it as a good travel/walk around MF camera?

Agreed, just got done lugging mine around New Orleans for 5 days. I threw a thin strap on it and when its hanging to the side I use it as an arm rest.

I think everyone in the dorkroom who has one has gone through a Japanese eBay seller. It would be worth comparing online vs in-country as online could be cheaper. Japan camera hunter might be able to give you an idea of the local prices.
