Ok, I have been digging on these cameras for the last two days. I have managed to find at least one of each that are with in the price of what I am willing for fork out. BUT, I have no idea which. I read good and bad about all of them. I lean one way then another. I just don't have the knowledge to make a decision. I like the Shen Hoa TZ 45 for its movements on the front and back and the shiny stuff is nice. I like the idea of the carbon fiber on the Chamonix but am not sure about the durability. It looks great tho! Order time is a detraction. I also have heard about headaches with the front standard when opening. Zone VI Wista, I really like the looks of these but am not sure about the movements. I read someting about them being stiff and not having full movement on the back. The Tach, well they are pricey. Ken Rockwell is high on them. But that does not make the choice any easier.
None of them say anything about closing with the lens still attached.
I am not trying to start a fight here. I would just like to know what you all like and dislike about the ones you are familiar with.
Thanks
Marty
