Man, you've got some nice lenses! May I ask what they are? I have horrible luck with buying unsharp lenses (even when they're suposta be the finest!).

This is the Mamiya 120mm Macro. An excellent lens. I can hardly wait to see the new 120mm Macro D lens.

So, are you running your p45 on a mamiya 645 as well as your 4x5?

Currently I am not using it on my 4x5 camera. I was using it on my 4x5 when I first got it because I had a 120mm Macro lens on loan from Schneider Optics, but my crappy 4x5 is hard to zero, and I couldn't get an image in focus from top to bottom when wide open.
I need to sell my 4x5 on ebay and get one that is easier to zero. Although I am pretty impressed by the Mamiya. I may sell my flexadapter and stricly use Mamiya, if only they had and extremely sharp tilt/shift lens.

Well, the shots you are posting are pretty darn amazing. Makes me reconsider shooting 4x5 (which is my main set up right now). Of course, a P45 is still a bit out of my price range, but the new Mamyia ZD back looks pretty promising. And within the year they should have an adapter to run it on RBs and RZs. I'm still waiting for the day they make a full-frame 6x7 sensor for those beasts. That would be pretty awesome.

Thanks for your answers. You have some really great work.
