Shrugs speaking of my own experience from A4 ink jet prints from scans, I don't notice much of a difference. I'm sure other experiences are available (especially as I'm shooting 6x6 and 6x4.5, not shot 6x7 or 6x9).
[troll]I wouldn't put old formulas from Leica in the sharp glass category, I'm talking about modern Nikon and Canon glass ;)[/troll]

It all depends on what the purpose is.
Well quite, note the caveats in my original post please.
If you're printing large then obvs medium format is the way to go. Saw some of Vivian Maier's Rolleiflex negs printed large at Photo London this year and they were stunning.
However, printing A4 or smaller (or just posting on the internets) from a fine grained 35mm neg shot on sharp glass the difference ain't going to be that great.

Every time I say I'm thinking about it somebody here says that. Truth is I haven't used it really in 5 years, apart from shooting landscapes in Iceland which albeit epic doesn't happen everyday. **The best camera for me personally is the one I use the most, and something about the Hasselblad doesn't make me carry it around with me and shoot in public. ** Agreed, gorgeous piece of kit though.
I seem to remember having this conversation with you six months ago...
I think I suggested then to shoot 35mm if you find the Hasselblad too much of a pain to take out.Use modern glass on an af body from the last days of film, shoot Delta/TMax or Portra/Ektar/Fuji Pro and the difference between that and medium format isn't that great. Especially if you're just getting scans and/or printing at A4.

Nikon F4, Kodak Ektar

Nice, like all three but really like the shoes shot

Aye, I'm looking out for MMJ lenses - they also enable program mode on the 167MT which the earlier AE ones don't

TLA20 flash
I may come back to you on that once I sort a lens out

Are the G1/G2/T2/T3 actually ultra reliable and it's just hipsters not realising they need to change batteries ?!
One for @Bratkartoffles
Had a flick through Douglas Ljungkvist's Urban Cars book today and quite liked it
