That way medium formats generates the bokeh is what fascinates me. 0.95 on FF is stunning but bokeh on a MF is just another league.
I guess Pentax is the system I'm looking for, I've shot with several Hasselblad and P1 backs but they never felt right as a camera system. There was always something annoying.

First of all, really great pictures :)
And since I'm no Pixelpeeper and I'm used to "noise" I hope the 645D isn't that bad at higher iso. Yeah decreassing quality is to be expected but I've seen now a few samples and they haven't been unusable :)

Nice Setup :) But I'm more the handholding type make's everything a bit more flexible while shooting :)
Lenses are really the point that keeps me thinking. Coming from FF I'm spoiled by really fast lenses and shooting around f0.95 or f1.2. Yes I know you can't beat physics and there are a couple fast lenses like the 80mm 2.0 or the 110mm 2.2 BUT do they work that brilliantly on the 645D? (Focusing troubles aside ;))

That are basically my main points to get into digital MF, it's more about the "feeling" for me if you know what I mean...

The Z would be the technical "better" option but is out of my budget at the moment. And so I could begin with the D get my lenses together and the upgrade to the Z in a couple years :)
@DSims
Tethering is not necessary for me. And as long as I get the Raw's somehow into PS that's fine for me.
Due to the cropping I would start with 35/75/150 as a set of lenses.
So far Thank you very much and up to now no big disadvantages regarding portraits ;)

Hi to everyone :)
That`s been the easy part and now to my question.
I`m thinking about getting into MF with a Pentax 645D for portrait use.
At the moment i`m using a Canon 1Ds Mk3 and a Sony A7R2 for most of my portrait sessions and for the last two years i´ve been shooting analog MF. I fell totally for the big format...
So i don`t mind the slow shooting speed or the lacking ISO-performance or even the age. What keeps me thinking is, that there are way to few portrait shoots for such a great camera. Is there a point that i just don`t see ?
So im looking forward to learn from your experience :)
