One begins to wonder if Pentax has not garnered more respect with the
67II than with the 645 in the MF world.  One reason could be fewer
competitors - in fact, for a hand held 67 with interchangeable lenses,
they may have no competition (at least a few Mamiya pros have told me
they wouldn't use their RB's and RZ's without a tripod and studio).
Even though the 645nII is more feature laden, the competitors are
quite strong (Mamiya, Contax and now Hasselblad).
