And you THOUGHT you'd have to spend ten grand for a medium format digital 
camera!?
(that?s my final punchline)

    Well if a medium format 60x60mm camera has an 80mm lens on it that lens 
is not a telephoto lens like it is on a 35mm camera. Its a standard normal 
for medium format film square!  No cropping comes into play. (The diagonal 
of 60x60mm is pretty close to 80mm.)
    Digital medium formats are a tad smaller than film medium formats 
cameras so they cost less than a million dollars. And more people buy them.
    But with this gorgeous to die for GFX100 I am overwhelmed by the idea of 
shooting with over a hundred megepixies!
    But maybe I should really be overwhelmed by the fact that it's made with 
physically way bigger sized medium format sensor? (33 ? 44mm)
    A combination of both would be the smart opinion. I'd both be right!
    Costing only $9,999.00 here in New York!  
    And you though you'd have to spend ten grand for a medium format digital 
camera!?
