Off topic here but with so many B&W film users in this list 
I might be excused,

I might go for a wide angle version of this folder if it perfomed as 
well as the 645 Zi I had.  On the other hand, the old Fuji folder I had 
was not something I found easy to do the type of work I like -- even 
for hand held, casual but enlargeable B&W images.  The ability to keep 
the lens axis precisely aligned would be one of my main concerns.   I 
also found the handling of the old folder was hampered -- for me -- by 
the smallness of the controls.  I found it difficult to use quickly and 
accurately.  But a small, modern 6x7 folder with a 55mm lens would be 
real tempting.

More or less what I advocated after I saw the first pictures 
of it maybe a year ago.
A wide angle and 56x82 mm frame size (the Nikon 8000-9000 
max scan format :-).
That still folds to  coat pocket size.
I do not understand Fuji's policy on this, they want to sell 
film so make the frame size larger.

While we're dreaming, maybe we could get Fuji to make a C41 process 
version of Tech Pan film.

Mark,

 

I took a look at your website
.very nice selection of services.

 

I have a question: which Cone inks are you using on Harman Gloss Paper?  Are
you using any a gloss optimizer with this setup?  Which printer are you
using?

 

Thank you,

George
