With all respect for Ansel Adams who explained this perfectly, I'd like to add my $0.02 (or only my Euro 0.02 which is even less ;-) to the discussion about possible vignetting effects in a leaf shutter. In fact when the shutter is located close to the f-stop, at the right place inside the lens, of course there should be no vignetting effect generated by the opening/closing of the shutter. In small point-and-shoot cameras there is even sometimes a single device combining the effect of a shutter *and* a f-stop. However if you take a piece of cardboard with a hole of any shape, say, square (or a big view camera leaf shutter) and place it in front of the lens, then you'll get a vignetting effect with a shape similar to the vignetting mask ; this is used to soften the edges of an image for portraits or whatever. When you have a fingerprint on the front element of your beloved planar 80 ("horresco referens" : this should of course never happen among HUGgers ;-), it will not be printed on your final image as a fingerprint. It only generates more stray light and slightly spreads out the image of a fine spot, thus degrading the overall sharpness of the image. For the same reason the shape of the f-stop blades never appear in your image *except* if you have in the field bright spots far out of focus ("Bokeh"), something frequent in macro situations yielding the well-know (and often pleasant as a background decoration) pentagon shapes of the Compur and Prontor f-stops.

Any edge falloff would be due more to the wide aperture used than to the shutter's action. The argument about the overexposure at small apertures seems reasonable, but with fairly fast-moving blades would probably not affect real-world situations too much. >It passes once per day overhead, once per day 'underfoot' ;-) > Yeah, but when it passes underfoot, its gravitational pull means that there should be a low tide where I am and a high tide in the antipodes. The moon pulls the water on the surface of the Earth into a slight egg shape that follows its motion. When the moon is "underfoot" the other end of the "egg" passes by your location, producing a second high tide.

Gravitation, like a Hasselblad, is an attractive force, not a repulsive force. Therefore the moon pulls all the water to one side of the earth. The 'egg' on the far side is caused by something other than the moon's pull. >The centrifugal force at the center of the Earth is precisely balanced by >the gravitational pull of the moon.

But I'm not sure the centrifugal force is equal in magnitude. I say this because the two high tides each day are different heights. And now back to topic ... I was a local camera shop here in Rio the other day, trying in my very best Portuguese to buy a few odds and ends. Once the owner discovered I was using a blad, he pulled out a portfolio and told me the story of his 3 blads and I ended up spending most of the morning there, understanding only about 10% of what he said. After an hour or so he took me to his studio upstairs and told me I had to be very very careful about fungus growth in the lenses because of the high humidity here. He showed me a box/cabinet he rigged up with a light bulb inside and some ventilation holes with air filters. Had all his lenses in there for years, all clean as whistles. So now I'm worried about my camera gear - summer is coming and the humidity is building up quickly now. He told me that inside the box it shouldn't be allowed to get too hot, but it needed to be warm enough in there to counteract the humidity. He used a single 40W lightbulb (rated at 220v, but connected to the local 110v). I assume this is equivalent to 20 watts. So, I'm gonna build one of these cubby houses for Mr.Distagon, Mr Planar and Ms. Sonnar to play in. I wanna put a thermometer in there to monitor the temperature. Does anyone know what is a safe temperature but adequate to combat fungus and mould? I plan to plug in brighter and brighter (hotter and hotter) bulbs until the steady-state temperature is right. I dont wanna fry my friends and I dont wanna do anything disastrous like actually promote the growth of fungus. Any help greatly appreciated.

That's what I use. There can't be much difference in price between the Hassy polarizer and a K=E4semann polarizer. I have an 86mm K=E4semann polarizer for one of my LF lenses, that I bought from B&H a couple of years ago. It was right up there in the Hassy price range, perhaps even more.

But the present day, 'real-world' Prontor shutters, as the older Compurs, are 'slow' enough to notice their speed, i.e. indeed see overexposure at high speeds and small apertures. ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 4 Oct 2000 21:38:27 +0200 From: "Q.G. de Bakker" To: Subject: Re: C-series lens spares Message-ID: <003401c02e3a$ac103ca0$a0d9f1c3@qnu99> Ian Goodrick wrote: > In a feature in today's British Journal of Photogaphy about service > departments at camera suppliers.

It's more likely that no parts have been made for these lenses for a long time now. A problem arrives when supplies of spares are running low. And perhaps that is what is happening now? But then, there are lots and lots of C-lenses about, and many can be used to supply spare parts that will help repair a multitude of others. But perhaps we will need to bypass Hasselblad's repair department. > The item gives no detail, or defines what is a simple repair, but this is > the first time I have seen this published, and can not see any reference in > the archive, (only a quick look). > > Is this only a policy by Hasselblad(UK) Ltd, or is around thr world? I have not seen this particular policy stated by Hasselblad, but it stands to reason that these lenses (last made in the late 1970s) will not be supported for ever. Especially when considering that Hasselblad has been urging us all to upgrade our lenses since the early 1980s. And they never miss an opportunity to do this still. > Has anyone more information?

To: hasselblad@kelvin.net Subject: Re: C-series lens spares Message-ID: Ian, I would think this will be a world wide, in as much as Hasselblad has little or no control over what Prontor will do with the older series "C" (1210) lenses. Hasselblad has discontinued the manufacture of the older 12 and 24 series magazines parts. What ever they have in stock at this time is all that is available. Many parts for the very early "C" (1210)type shutter are no longer available and have not been for some years. In addition to that there are a number of parts for the 500C and 500EL that are not available. I do not know how much longer parts for the last series of the "C" (1210) will be available. The later CF and CB and other such lenses that use shutter other than the 1210 series are in the process of being changed now. Personally I am sorry to see this, I like the older 1210 shutter, it was a fairly reliable and durable shutter assembly. I am not so sure about the newer ones, 1240 and later.
