Where is the best place to send it for replacement of the batteries, I'm interested in getting the newer generation NiCad batteries, not the cheap ones. Anybody got any leads for me?

If you cannot remove the batteries because of corrosion you can buy a new holder from most any camera store for less then $30.00.

Before Flatness Problems Message-ID: <000701c0e294$340d54e0$6401a8c0@wi.rr.com> Hi, I've heard some discusion of film flatness problems and Hasseblad backs. Just for the heck of it I took a the dark slide off a back and advanced the film a frame. As the film was advanced one could see a wrinkle where it had been wrapped around the roller. Pushing my finger against the wrinkle visible flattened it. The film was sitting in the mag for about five days. Is it a good idea to skip a frame once the film has been siting in the mag for awhile? How long is a while? A little disapointed, Jeff ------------------------------ End of hasselblad V1 #1234 ************************** ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The Hasselblad Users Group Listserv is a public service of Absolute Internet, Inc., which is not responsible for its content.
