I don't know where these stories come from, but most professional medium format cameras (Hasselblad, LeafCredo, etc.) use CF cards and I cant imagine they will change.
After too much research I decided on the Eizo FlexScan EV 2455.
Maybe not the best choice, but if fast enough it could work.
Years ago I made the decision to tackle Photoshop and not give up. I am now glad I did.
I stand corrected.
I was just expressing the need to anchor the tripod.
You can also use three 10lb bags laid up against the base of the legs.
Two 10lb sand bags, mirror up, focus manually and with that sensor use a prime 50mm. Crop later in Photoshop to desired size.
The first response was the right choice.
Inexpensive, good contrast, sharp, fast
and small.

I have been dating for a long time and wondered if I should settle down with one of them for the long haul, but then again a new one always seems to appear with new and different attributes.

I would never choose a digital camera since they become obsolete immediately.
That leaves film and I would choose a Leica M3 (with any 35mm Leica lens) for its build and construction quality or Mamyia 6 witch is just one of the most iconic medium format cameras made. It also helps that both cameras take great photographs.
I have and believe it is just marginally better than the M8.2.
Also, although not for everyone, I personally think the Sigma Foveon sensor cameras produce outstanding B&W images.
I was so impressed by the B&W performance of the stacked array Foveon that I sold my M8.2 and purchased one.
Sudden humidity and temperature change.
Lens needs adjustment period.
Iconic Contarex Bullseye, Alpa SLR or rangefinder, Kodak Medalist II, Fuji 6x9 SW, Leica M3, Cambo Wide, and of course the ever popular Samoka 35 Super.
I picked-up some heavy wax coated thread and a carpet needle at the local fabric store. If its leather I punch a hole in the middle then pass the needle through the middle then over the outsides alternating. If nylon you can poke the needle through the webbing with the needle using pliers.
I have taken neck straps, I don't want or find cheap at garage sales, cut them down to the needed length for my wrist and sew the ends securely together to form a loop at the end near the camera lug attachment.
