Much of the stuff that I listed was not rentable, or was used for a  
period of months to years where renting would have been prohibitively  
expensive. I would have rented it otherwise.

That's typical for medium format systems, Aaron. I got the Hassy  
903SWC first, then happened upon a great deal for a 500C/M which  
included an 80 and two other, older lenses. I don't think I used the  
65mm and 150mm very much at all with it in the time I had it, between  
the SWC and the 80mm I was quite happy. Based on the negatives I'm  
looking through right now, I could easily have done completely  
without the 500CM and worked exclusively with the 903SWC.
