System : OM
Why: I know it well and like it even more. Handling and
versatility wise it compares favourably to MF or LF. I like the way it looks
and handles. It has all the accessories I'll ever need. ( In MF I'd choose
Hasselblad and in LF Linhof Technika)
Camera : OM4Ti
Why: Do I really need to explain it. If there is anyone here
on the list that needs convincing I'll email privately.
Lenses: 16F3.5, 18f3.5, 35-105F3.4-4.5, ( or 50F1.2 instead of 35-105)
Why: This is, I guess, a personal choice and it relates more
to focal lengths then to actual lenses. If I've chosen another system I
would have probably listed the same focal lengths in another make. All the
listed lenses produce brilliant images which resemble closely the way I see
in the first place.
cheers
