Beautiful images, inspirational even, Dawid, thanks for posting. Which lens
did you use for the Audi - 14-35?

Joel, welcome to the RB67 club! I've been using it for a couple of years
now, still as my primary system (i.e. more photos on it than any of my other
systems) - I am more than happy to share my experiences and insights.

The RB67 is the world's most fun camera.

And you are right, the E-5 (my very limited experience with it so far
suggests) is certainly not holding me back whatsoever. Nothing looks like
monochrome film, so I won't even really try - as that would hold me back
bigtime. But for what it does well, it does extremely well.

If I think back to my Canon EOS 1D(s) days, I would rank the E-5 body as
every bit as good, with a whole number of aspects that are actually better,
and only a minor few flaws (i.e. a viewfinder which, impressive as it is for
such a tiny mirror, is still too small for a camera this size).

I do like having some colour in my life again :-)

Dawid
