> Hi Bruce, I have the 5050 & the 8080 and would not part with them. For the type of work that I use them for they are ideal for me. The 5050 is like using a small rangefinder and I like to use it when I don’t want the equipment to intimidate people if I’m “street shooting”. The flip up monitor on both models is also very handy, for all the really active years of my career I shot Large and medium format and am quite familiar with ground glass and waist level finders! The 8080s are a fair bit larger and heavier then the 5050, but again using Mamiya 6x6, 6x4.5 and 6x9 cameras along with 4x5, and 8x10 view cameras the 8080 is a lightweight in comparison! Hope that helps and feel free to email me if you have any other questions. Glad you liked the shot, balancing the light was tricky on this one. Regards, R.

Hi Randall !, Nice shot, I feel admiration how you deal with the light, good balance between the foreground and the light of the window. I must confess I don´t like the scene, but you made it interesting !!.. best regards, Ricardo
