Oh man. That brings back bad memories of my Mamiya days.

How so? "Bad" as in "Man, this thing is heavy!" bad? Couldn't have been "IQ is bad", this Hassy here is pretty tricked out, and I am sure your Mamiya served its purpose admirably, too 🙂

"Bad" as in too bulky and heavy, and the lenses were also huge. Image quality was great but I really hated hauling all that big gear around. If I'd only been shooting in the studio, no problem, but the vast majority of my work was location photography. I got to a point where I just didn't want to do it anymore so I went 100% 35mm.

Well, good to hear you didn't go full retro with a Speed Graflex instead of heading off into 35mm land.
