It may be close, but I'm convinced an autofocus, digital true 6x7 format camera is what waits in heaven
It's actually a digital Mamiya 7 is my understanding with a 120 mp Sony Sensor

A few from this morning with the 645z and the 'kit' SMC Pentax-D FA 645 55mm F2.8 AL [IF] SDM AW. The first two on a tripod and the third hand held.

Thankyou. I love this camera. I like the 55mm. I love the 28-48 and getting to grips with the 90mm macro. But the biggest challenge is processing the files. Not the file size, but the response to my APSC learned PP skills. Getting there I think.

I hope my 6x7 Pentax film camera and an endless supply of B&W film and free processing awaits me in heaven!

Ok I promise I'll stop but the scene just kept on giving. Another with the 55mm but the sun came up and lit the background giving a sort of floating castle version. The mist kindly spanned the width of the image. I have more but I'll keep them to myself so as not to over saturate this thread with Kilchurn Castle pic.

Black and white landscapes are starting to grow on me, forcing me to look at texture and light. They're also alot more fun to process, almost makes you want to go back to a darkroom.......almost

I was in this area a few months ago and wished at the time that I'd had time to stop. I'd spent too long at Oban, and had a long drive to the Lake District to do....

Kilchurn Castle can offer up at golden hours all year round. Great location, and great shots so don't be afeared of showing them off!

Good to see color there, what makes for the red, maples? Also what is the agriculture? It does not look like that where I live! --meaning rolling, few vistas, lots of color this time of year, and no agriculture... Nice layered composition.

Lovely landscape, and I never knew that kangaroos were so friendly, or sociable with humans.

Thanks David.
The reds are maples and oaks. Those must be eastern species, as the native oaks don't really get colorful, they just turn brown.
The main local agriculture for the last 80 years has been pears, and some peaches. You might have run across a catalog for the Harry and David company? They are a big mail order fruit basket company. They are based in the valley here and have been since the 1930s. Unfortunately, there is more money in real estate, and more glamour in wineries, so every year a few more orchards are bulldozed and a winery or subdivision put in. The Rogue Valley is becoming a pretty good wine area, and there are quite a lot of vineyards now.
