I must have the nostalgia gene missing.
I can fondly remember the quality of the images those cameras achieved but I have no desire to work with a 'brick' in the hand' or lug about supports anymore. The results we can achieve with DSLRs like the D850 are perfectly comparable quality. And if they are not good enough, it's ME that's letting the equipment down.
That is the reason why I did not pursue this as I feel that it is nostalgia but in reality the quality I can get from the Z7 or D850 is as good and I also have a full range of fast lenses that I can use.
It is nice old engineering with a digital back. Nice but how worth it that is questionable? You also bring up the highly important aspect of size, portability and the need for a tripod, all negative aspects for me.
