I have never had either of my Mamiya 6 bodies calibrated with my 50mm lens. Both work fine with the lens. In fact, it's one of my favorite lenses.

Well, the graphics on the www.four-thirds.org website shows that the micro 4/3 format is not a SLR format (there's no mirror), but there is an extension/adapter that will allow for the older 4/3 lenses to work with the new u4/3 mount.
So, this is not a case of making dSLRs smaller---it's just making digital cameras smaller.
Would you trade a Mamiya 6 for the 7?

Both are extremely similar camera systems. Both are well made, work well, and have similar quirks. The biggest difference in my mind is that the M-6 is 6x6 and the M-7 is 6x7.
Personally, I prefer my M-6 since I am usually travelling when I do my photograpy, and the retractable lens mount helps (unless you have the 150mm lens mounted).
Since you already have a M-6, have you tried any of the M-7 cameras?
