I realize that this is not large format but I have a question. During a recent burglary of my home my complete Bronica ETRS system (four lenses, three backs etc) was one of the items stolen. I am working with the insurance company on replacing some of these things. I have full replacement cost insurance.
Since Bronica is no longer selling new cameras, what camera would be a similar quality camera? It seems, from what I can determine, that the two main players are Mamiya and Hassleblad. Am I missing something here? Which would you opt for and would you go to the additional expense of a digital back in lieu of the film backs? What does the 22 MP back of the Mamiya have over the 22 MP 5D II that I already own?
Thanks for any information that you care to share.
