Sandy,

Glad to see you are still alive and kicking!

I have a fp L, and downsizing the 60mp images to 1/4 original pixels gives me "keepers" that match the best of Merrill very closely, right down to pixel level.  Processing with SPP gives the most authentic results, in my opinion.  High ISO performance and dynamic range leaves legacy Foveon in the dust.  Many here will disagree with all this.

Mostly I use manual third party lenses such as the TTartisan 21mm F1.5. Not too expensive, not too big, not too heavy.

My solution for a viewfinder is a Hoodman Loupe against the rear LCD. You might want to get the viewfinder accessory, which is $699 I believe.

I also have a dp0 Quattro, and it's very good, but I can't change the lenses!
