Thanks Mark and Asher!
I find the 'narrow' format to very much suit the narrow alleyways and streets of the Old City and Old Settlement of Jerusalem. Never seen 6x12 used in vertical before but it just works to frame my reactions to these locations.
I use ACR for my processing and Autopano Pro to stitch. Don't like and can't use DPP and still have to learn C1 (i.e. to get it to work) though I'd still never give up the dodge and burn tools in ACR for all that C1 colour is better. You have to remember that I am usually working with well over 1000 images at a time so workflow is all important. Bridge and ACR give me that, moreso than LR IMO and experience.
5D mkI. What a sensor is in that beauty. I have two of them, bought when first released and apart from a screen change due to being soaked at too many weddings - still going strong. They are both battered, missing half the paint, scratched to heck and back but the images are still huge 8 micron pixel, very light AA filter goodness and to be honest I never really see the need for much more given that all 21-25 megapixels would buy me is far more problematic diffraction, far more noticeable focus fall off and of course the emptying of my wallet! No, I'm sticking to that 5D mkI and for all that it has a single useable focus point, not waterproof, screen that's useless outdoors, etc. The files are still benchmarked for their pure all round quality.
