I 'm not a frequent reader of the Luminous Landscape, but I logged on to it and found this quite amazing page:
http://www.luminous-landscape.com/reviews/cameras/digital-view.shtml
If you haven't read the page, he bought a 6x9 Linhof geared monorail and a high-end digital back in order to do architecture. He also plans on taking it to Africa, etc., to replace his medium format SLR on his photo excursions.
I think I will be reading his site regularly for a while. Until he bails on the Linhof, anyway. I've never quite cottoned to his prose style, his gear obsessions, or his photographs, but this should be fascinating. I'd be willing to bet that he sells the Linhof by July based on my knowledge of him, but until then I can't wait to hear what it's like to use this thing in the field.
